What’s the play here anyway? The population of Greenland is like 60k people. Is it really just Trump’s brainworms acting up real bad or is there some benefit if you do imperialism to Greenland? Do they want to slap a military base there or something?
Do they want to slap a military base there or something?
Already done long ago, US military Thule base was illegally founded on the island in 1941-43 to the protests of Danish government. And of course the building of the base seen the local indigenous tribe forcibly relocated twice (leave it to the US to find some people to ethnically cleanse even in one of the most sparsely inhabited regions in the world). And the base is huge, at one point it had 10000 personnel though nowadays it’s way less, possibly around 600.
i know you look big on a mercator projection but you can’t be your own continent, you’ll have to stick with america.
god willing not yankee tho
This whole th8ng becomes way funnier when you realize that Trump doesn’t understand derstand mercator projections and thinks there’s a second America right off our coast nobody’s using.
Mercator distorts things but Greenland is still yuge.
While i get them, i dont know how they plan on sustaining themselves. If they want to be independant from countries they have to be dependant on something else which will most likely be the eu if thet join. Greenlands population is 50k, one of the smallest counties based on population, while its land area 2 million km² is the 12th largest country.
You might have missed some points.
Prime Minister Mute Egede:
“Cooperation is about dialogue. Cooperation means that you will work towards solutions,” he said.
Trump earlier this week refused to rule out using military or economic force in order to bring Greenland under US control. Trump said last month that “ownership and control” of Greenland was an “absolute necessity” for the US, as it seeks to counter growing Russian and Chinese interest in the Arctic region.
