OSLO, Jan. 19 (Xinhua) -- Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store on Monday confirmed that he has received a letter from U.S. President Donald Trump, in which the latter dismissed any obligation "to think purely of peace" and reaffirmed his desire to control Greenland.
According to local media reports, Store said the letter had "come in response to a short message to President Trump from me earlier in the day, on behalf of myself and Finnish President Alexander Stubb."
In the letter, Trump referred to Norway's decision not to award him the Nobel Peace Prize for what he described as "stopping eight wars," stating that "I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace."
He added that he could now "think about what is good and proper" for the United States.
Trump further claimed that since NATO's inception, the United States has contributed more to NATO than any other country, and "now NATO should do something for the United States." He asserted that "the complete and total control of Greenland" by the United States is the only way to ensure global security. ■
