Vice President JD Vance said he would join a delegation visiting Greenland this week, even as the trip has sparked criticism from local leaders in the Danish territory that US President Donald Trump has suggested should come under American control.

Vance said he would join the trip on Friday, which was already slated to include his wife, second lady Usha Vance, as well as National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and Energy Secretary Chris Wright.
