WASHINGTON, Jan ‌16 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald ‌Trump's special envoy to Greenland ‌said he plans to visit the Danish territory in March, and ‍that he believes a ‍deal can ‌be made.

"I do believe that there's ‍a ​deal that should and will be made ⁠once this plays out," Jeff ‌Landry told Fox News in an ⁠interview ‍on Friday as a bipartisan delegation of U.S. lawmakers was ‍set to meet leaders ‌of Greenland and Denmark.

"The president is serious. I think he's laid the markers down. He's told Denmark what he's looking for, and now it's ‌a matter of having Secretary (of State Marco) Rubio and Vice ​President JD Vance make a deal."
