North West Passage. Alaska and Greenland are control points.

Greenland needs to join Canada.
Labrador, Newfoundland , Greenland has a poetic ring to it . Possibly the start of a great northern empire . Go Canada .

If The U.S. is below Canada, and Alaska is to the NW of Canada, & Trump is dead set on “acquiring” Greenland by whatever means (including militarily) necessary…to the NE of Canada, where does that leave the future state of Labrador, Newfoundland, & Greenland on your map?

Anyway, back to the Donroe Doctrine, Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel rejected Trump's threat on social media, suggesting the U.S. had no moral authority to force a deal on Cuba.

"Cuba is a free, independent, and sovereign nation. Nobody dictates what we do," Diaz-Canel said on X. "Cuba does not attack; it has been attacked by the U.S. for 66 years, and it does not threaten; it prepares, ready to defend the homeland to the last drop of blood."

The U.S. president did not elaborate on his suggested “deal,” but Trump's push on Cuba represents the latest escalation in his move to bring regional powers in line with the United States and underscores the seriousness of the administration's ambition to dominate the Western Hemisphere.
Cuba relies relied on imported crude and fuel mainly provided by Venezuela, and Mexico in smaller volumes, purchased on the open market to keep its power generators and vehicles running.

As its operational refining capacity dwindled in recent years, Venezuela's supply of crude and fuel to Cuba has fallen. But the South American country is was still the largest provider with some 26,500 barrels per day exported last year, according to ship tracking data and internal documents of state-run PDVSA, which covered roughly 50% of Cuba's oil deficit.
Well, there is Trump‘s prediction that Cuba’s potentially a failed state…’cuz He is actively working to make it become one.

As for Greenland Newfoundland and Labrador are concerned , once Canada inevitably splits apart at the seams Newfoundland and the rest of the Maritime provinces will have to do some serious thinking . Perhaps Greenland Newfoundland will merge .

Or Maine becomes significantly larger as it stretches into the Arctic. If Maine absorbed New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, and Newfoundland & Labrador, it would become a massive territory, growing from its current ~35,000 sq mi (90,600 km²) to over 220,000 square miles (approx. 570,000 km²), making it roughly the size of France or Texas, vastly larger than its current New England stature…& that’s without factoring in Greenland.🤫

But it would have State powers too strong for DC to handle.
