President Donald Trump's desire to annex Greenland will not be thwarted and there could be meaningful U.S. action related to the Arctic island within "weeks or months," according to a senior administration official.

Dans has been working on the issue since 2020.
"This is a train route with multiple stops," he said in an exclusive interview with USA TODAY. "Things could move on an express basis, skip the local stops and go direct to the main station. That's where President Trump wants to move it − at high speed."
