In an interview with the New York Times, American President Donald Trump stated that the only limit in the foreign policy of the United States is his own morality, emphasizing that he does not need international law. These comments come in the context of the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and European concerns regarding a possible takeover of Greenland by the U.S. Trump acknowledged that, although he believes the U.S. should respect international law, its interpretation can vary. He has also faced criticism for his previous military actions and the legal issues he is facing in his own country. Regarding Greenland, Trump suggested that there might be a choice between maintaining NATO's integrity and taking control of Danish territory. His advisor, Stephen Miller, emphasized that international policy is governed by power and force.
