COPENHAGEN - "One way or the other," President Donald Trump has said, the United States needs to "get" Greenland. Not only to defend the homeland, but the "freedom of the world." Denmark, he says, isn't doing nearly enough to protect it. He has named two potential adversaries: China and Russia. Its location, way out there, in a hostile ocean between North America, Western Europe and Russia, made Greenland strategically vital during the Cold War. After the Soviet Union collapsed, not so much.

When President Donald Trump directed the U.S. government to begin using the Guantánamo Bay Naval Station as a detention center for migrants in late January, he said it would “double our capacity immediately” to hold people being removed from the country as part of a massive deportation campaign. But nearly two months later, the operation has struggled to scale up. On Wednesday, a Defense Department official confirmed there were no migrants being held in Guantánamo.
