No talk of using military in Greenland: US House Speaker

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson said Wednesday he has not heard talk of sending the military into Greenland, after President Donald Trump refused to rule out force to seize the island from ally Denmark.

"I don't think anybody's talking about using military force in Greenland. They're looking at diplomatic channels," said Johnson, who has acknowledged he was not informed in advance about Trump's military raid in Venezuela.
