The Greenland Question

Описание: Donald Trump’s controversial proposal for the United States to purchase Greenland from Denmark sent shockwaves through the geopolitical landscape. This video examines the intense diplomatic fallout following the attempt to acquire the world's largest island—a move that was firmly rejected by both Danish and Greenlandic leaders.


We dive deep into the strategic motivations behind the Trump administration's interest, focusing on Greenland as a vital asset for national security and future resource exploration in the warming Arctic. Central to this discussion is the critical importance of the Pituffik Space Base (formerly Thule Air Base), a northern military cornerstone essential for NATO missile defense and satellite tracking operations.

Despite American interests, legal analysts emphasize that contemporary international law and the sacred principle of self-determination make such a territorial transfer nearly impossible without the consent of the local population. We explore why Greenlanders overwhelmingly oppose the sale, viewing it as a direct threat to their sovereign identity and territorial integrity.

Finally, we look at the severe strain this episode placed on transatlantic relations, reaching a point where Danish intelligence classified the American pursuit as a potential security threat.
