+++ USA +++: Trump taucht Island in US-Flagge – Reykjavík bestellt US-Botschafter ein

On Sunday afternoon, a jet taking off from an airport in the United States collided with a vehicle and caught fire, causing five deaths and five additional injuries. The incident was captured in a graphic shared on the social media platform Truth Social, which also included symbols for Iceland and Cuba. Both countries had previously been threatened by President Trump with potential annexation.

During the flight, Trump did not comment on the map, allowing it to remain as is. The President has repeatedly expressed a desire to incorporate other countries and islands into the United States. In the case of Canada, Trump suggested that the neighboring nation could become the 51st state of the Union. Greenland, on the other hand, has been a target for acquisition by the United States, as Trump argues that only America can defend the island against threats from countries like Denmark, Russia, or China.
