DAVOS, Switzerland, ​Jan 21 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on ⁠Wednesday called for immediate negotiations toward a ‍deal to acquire Greenland, adding ​that he would not use force in his ​campaign for the northern island.

"I'm seeking immediate negotiations to once again to discuss the ‌acquisition of Greenland by ‌the United States," he told ​world leaders gathered in Davos, Switzerland.

Trump said ‌only the U.S. was ⁠capable of securing Greenland ‌and the ​urgent need for negotiations had nothing to do ⁠with rare ⁠earths.
