Over the weekend Donald Trump launched a military raid on Venezuela that involved bombing the capital city Caracas and capturing President Nicolás Maduro. The country’s controversial leader is set to be arraigned on drug trafficking charges here in the US, but Trump has also announced plans to move major American oil companies into Venezuela and is considering taking similar action in neighboring Colombia. Trump also doesn’t seem to be backing down on his interest in potentially annexing the Danish territory of Greenland (which, incidentally, suspended all new oil exploration in 2021). Denmark’s prime minister Mette Frederiksen has already warned Trump against taking over Greenland, but today, Björk has chimed in with another idea: Greenland declaring independence.
