President Donald Trump has announced that he will send a hospital ship to Greenland to help sick people who he says are not receiving care[1][2][3]. He published the claim on the Truth Social platform shortly before meeting with Republican governors at the White House[2][3]. Greenland Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen rejected the offer, stating that Greenland has a functioning public health system with free treatment for citizens[2]. The Danish Minister of Defense added that Greenlanders receive the necessary care either in Greenland or with specialized treatment in Denmark[2][3]. Health care in both Greenland and Denmark is free[2][3]. The Greenlandic government recently signed an agreement with Copenhagen to improve the treatment of Greenlandic patients in Danish hospitals[2][3]. Trump's announcement came after an American submarine crew member was evacuated by the Danish military for medical reasons[1][2].
