US President Donald Trump says German and a little Japanese would have dominated global lingua franca had America not intervened.
Trump spoke on Wednesday when he took the stage at the World
Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, to tell European leaders the US won
World War II “big”.
“Without us right now, you would all be speaking German and
a little Japanese,” he said.
Before his claim, Trump brought up his Greenland takeover
ambitions.
“Denmark fell to Germany after just six hours of fighting,
and was totally unable to defend either itself or Greenland. So the United
States was then compelled, and we did it,” he said.
He expressed frustration at the US’ decision at the time to
allow Denmark to retain Greenland as a territory.
“After the war, we gave Greenland back to Denmark. How
stupid were we to do that? But we did it. But we gave it back, but how
ungrateful are they now?” the US president said.
“So now our country and the world face much greater risks
than it did ever before, because of missiles, because of nuclear weapons of
warfare that I can’t even talk about.”
Trump said he was “seeking immediate negotiations to once
again discuss the acquisition of Greenland by the United States” but ruled out
options of using force.
The US had deployed force earlier this month in Venezuela
and captured President Nicolas Maduro and his wife.
Trump touted the US mission and said “more people should
cooperate like the country”.
