Vice President JD Vance will visit Greenland on Friday. He will join second lady Usha Vance and several other United States officials who were already in the European nation amid tensions with the United States as President Donald Trump seeks to take over the island.

“You know, there was so much excitement around Usha’s visit to Greenland this Friday that I decided that I didn’t want her to have all that fun by herself, and so I’m going to join her,” Vance said in a video post to X on Tuesday.
