US expected to acquire Greenland ‘sooner than predicted' as oil crisis looms
2026-04-18
[Sky News Australia] GB News host Alex Armstrong predicts America will acquire Greenland "sooner than predicted", citing declining oil output from the Middle East as a key driver.

"We are going to need to buy American oil; there is no reliable oil coming out of the Middle East anymore, and this has moved the power back to the United States as it continues its tariff game," Mr Armstrong told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio.

"Critically, America has said as part of its greater North America plan, they want Greenland, and I think they’re going to get it sooner than we predicted.

"We’re going to be going cap in hand, asking them for their oil and in return, they’re going to say, well, if you want it, you better give us what we’ve asked for."
Do we still want it, or just that bit in the corner for a base, while the Europeans step up and man proper defenses?
