Trump refuses to rule out military force to seize Greenland and Panama | BBC News
The US President-elect Donald Trump has ramped up threats to seize control of Greenland and the Panama Canal, calling both critical to US national security.
Asked at a press conference if he would rule out using military or economic force in order to take over the autonomous Danish territory or the Panama Canal, he responded: “No, I can’t assure you on either of those two…. but I can say this, we need them for economic security.” Both Denmark and Panama have rejected any suggestion that they would voluntarily give up their territory.
Mr Trump also said he planned to use “economic force” when asked if he would attempt to annex Canada, calling the US-Canada border an “artificially drawn line”.
During the news conference at Mr Trump’s Mar-a- Lago estate in Florida he also criticised environmental regulations, the US electoral system and suggested renaming the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America”.

US and Iran hold peace talks in highest level meeting since 1979 Islamic revolution | BBC News
The US Vice-President JD Vance has been holding face to face talks with senior Iranian leaders in Islamabad. It’s the highest level direct talks between the two countries since Iran’s Islamic revolution in. 1979.
There were three rounds of talks mediated by Pakistan in Islamabad, with the hope of agreeing a permanent end to the fighting in the Middle East that began with US and Israel attacking Iran and sparked a wider conflict and the closure of the strait of Hormuz to international shipping.
There are huge obstacles to a lasting peace deal. The strait of Hormuz remains blocked to much shipping, pushing up global prices of oil and gas. In Lebanon Israel continues to attack Hezbollah, Iran’s most powerful proxy. More than 200 targets have been attacked there in the past 24 hours, with the death toll over 2,000.
Christian Fraser presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Caroline Davies and Lyse Doucet in Islamabad.

Today, an undercover BBC investigation has found evidence of law firms and legal advisors helping migrants pretend to be gay to get asylum.
Migrants were advised to take staged photos at nightclubs, attend LGBT events and to go to GPs pretending to be depressed to obtain medical evidence to support their cases.
Adam and Chris are joined by BBC politics investigation correspondent Billy Kenber, who uncovered the story. In response to our findings, the Home Office said: “Anyone found trying to exploit the system will face the full force of the law, including removal from the UK.”
Plus, Adam also checks in with Faisal, who’s in the US at the IMF’s annual conference. He fills us in on the indirect war of words between Rachel Reeves and her US counterpart, Scott Bessent.
