The World Tonight   /     Trump threatens to seize control of Greenland and the Panama Canal

Description

US President- elect Donald Trump has refused to rule out using military force to seize control of Greenland and the Panama Canal. He also said he would consider ‘economic force’ to annex Canada. We get reaction from a Greenlandic politician from the governing coalition. Also on the programme: Mark Zuckerberg announces he’s scrapping Meta’s independent fact checkers, citing their political bias; and we speak to a climber who experienced an earthquake on Mount Everest.
