D. Trump recently took to his social media platform to announce that a hospital ship is currently on its way to Greenland, aimed at addressing the medical needs of many sick individuals who, according to him, are not receiving adequate care. He described the ship as a 'great' hospital vessel but declined to provide additional details about the mission or its logistics.

This announcement comes in the wake of Trump's prior threats to annex Greenland, a strategically important territory of the Kingdom of Denmark. His remarks have notably strained diplomatic relations between Europe and the United States, raising concerns about the motives behind the sudden deployment of a hospital ship to an area that has not reportedly indicated any significant medical requirements.

The U.S. Navy operates two large hospital ships, each equipped with approximately 1,000 beds, including 80 intensive care units. These vessels have previously been deployed in response to natural disasters or public health crises, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the lack of recent complaints from Greenland, which is home to around 57,000 people, regarding medical needs raises questions about whether this mission was coordinated with the Danish government, further complicating the geopolitical landscape in the region.
