Why does Trump want Greenland so badly, and what could it mean for Europe?

Video Overview & Insights

Why does Trump want Greenland so badly, and what could it mean for Europe?

Expose and exterminate the illuminati for the sake of National Security

— @JoeReal-f1h

The US president's latest remarks about a possible annexation of Greenland have drawn condemnation from Denmark and Europe more widely.

CLAIM 1: “NATIONAL SECURITY REQUIRES CONTROL”
Reality check: Security access already exists without ownership.
Greenland already sits inside a long-standing U.S.–Denmark defense framework. The U.S. has operated there for decades—most famously at Thule, now Pituffik Space Base—and the United States can pursue expanded capabilities through cooperation and negotiated basing arrangements.
So if the goal were purely defensive—more sensors, more infrastructure, more coverage, you negotiate, you fund upgrades, you expand presence with allies, and you avoid destabilizing NATO. That’s why “security” alone doesn’t explain the shift to coercive rhetoric.

CLAIM 2: ECONOMIC PARTNERSHIPS AND INVESTMENTS
GREENLAND offers economic partnership and investments to United stated companies.

Billionaire tech companies HAVE already INVESTED partner, and finance Greenland projects… why escalate into threats that strain NATO?
TAKE A LOOK AT WHO INVESTED
INvester/Backers : Jeff Bezo, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Sam Altman , Micheal Bloomberg, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc andreessen, Horowitz, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, Ken Howery Ambassador to Denmark ( WTF) ++ +

Tanbreez / Critical Metals: Reuters reports Cantor Fitzgerald is a major investor, led by Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, who was nominated for Commerce; the company is tied to Greenland rare earth development.
KoBold IBackers/Investors Jeff Bezo, Mark Zuckerberg, Micheal Bloomberg, Sam Altman, Bill Gates
KoBold / Bluejay JV: widely reported 2021 JV where KoBold can earn 51% of Disko-Nuussuaq via exploration funding.
KoBold backers / valuation: FT reports KoBold backed by Gates/Bezos and valued around $2.96B after a major funding round.
Freedom city lane: Reuters ties the “startup city / minimal regulation” pitch to specific networks and the Greenland push.

Peter Thiel funded Praxis to build a “freedom city” in Greenland. Reuters reports wealthy donors/investors lobbying for a libertarian “freedom city” concept in Greenland tied to Trump-era acquisition talk and names tech-finance supporters (including Thiel-linked networks)

Ronald Lauder investor iPolitiken-reported involvement in Greenland-focused investment efforts and his role in planting the Greenland idea with Trump (via Bolton).

The clear beneficiaries if Greenland becomes a deregulated project zone are: firms [BILLIONAIRES] positioned for mineral access and upstream rights firms positioned for data/AI infrastructure (energy + land + regulatory flexibility), political figures who gain a domestic strongman win by “taking” something, donor networks that gain policy alignment (even if there’s no explicit quid-pro-quo, the alignment itself has value).
,

Trump didn’t just say “security.” “We will keep you safe. We will make you rich…” He's pitching deal

MEGALITHIC ANCIENT CIVILIZATION WAS DISCOVERED IN GREENLAND ALONG WITH THE KNOWN RARE MINERALS

STRANGE UNIDENTIFIED
MONUMENTS were found during exploration

THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS SUBSIDIZED BILLIONAIRE WELFARE QUEENS Theil, Musk, Trump, Bezos, Gates, and many others WANT IT!

NOAA's DCSOVR (Deep Space Climate
Observer) satellite on May 2020, while
operating within a climate study,
discovered the megalithic ruins while
passing over Greenland's northern
boundaries. Teams from the University of Greenland and scientists from the
Denmark Ministry of Science and
Technology were dispatched to investigate the ruins several months after and explored the site before the polar winter.

Ancient ruins and relics
found from retreating glacial ice near Pearly Land in Greenland

Denmark's archaeologists
say the site could be one of
many now being revealed

Evidence of an unknown
prehistoric culture may date some 200,000 years or older.

Why doesn’t Greenland rent it to him put an agreement in writing let the rest of the world see what that is and we can vote if we think it’s a good idea?? If we don’t like it go back to the table until it’s done.. everything out in the open for the Public to see we own it the people.

You should have thought about that earlier. Denmark was among the first to recognize the secession of Kosovo, which was an integral part of Serbia after the illegal attack by NATO and the USA. You supported the forced emigration and expulsion of Christians and the destruction of Serbian cultural heritage. Now Serbia should be among the first to recognize the violent secessionism of Greenland. 1:1.

The US has military bases in Greenland, why do they still want Greenland as part of the US?

So he needs Greenland for National security?
You mean an island in Europe and Nato (by defult), that is an ally of a whole European continent who are supposedly all your friends??

Who you needing security from?? Your allies??

Nonsense.

An attack on Greenland is an attack on Europe, and Nato directly.

So either Nato fight back. Or they cower and give up and get bullied.

I know which one they will chose.

The US needs Greenland so they can protect weak Europeans who would rather spend their money on social programs instead of military. Just give it to them. Europe has zero reason to want Greenland.

@Freeloving
@

People forget that the US historically acquired half of its current territory by purchasing it from other countries. Also Greenland is already Denmark's puppet territory. It would just change it's owner, while maintaining it's current living standards. It makes sense why he would want to buy Greenland,. But taking it by force is what makes it understandably outrageous, as that would mean stealing land belonging to their allies.

Even if it's about security or natural resources, I still don't understand why he couldn't have just made a deal for them with a historically friendly country. He's the art of the deal guy and has been wanting that Nobel Peace prize and now he's deploying military actions and threats.

Our friend in Kenya was on a WA call last weekend. He was saying, the locals are amused at the UK / US / EU situation over Greenland & Venezuala. They say, it is funny, and it will be good if they destroy each other over these issues. They have plundered Afrika & Asia over last 300 - 400 years, and it is time for their judgement

Denmark must hand over Greenland to “King” Trump. Otherwise, the Danish Prime Minister will be impeached for drug trafficking.

Scary part is not the military or sovereignty aspect, its what it does do european peoplese view of EU .. Our politicians expend huge political effort to mould its citizens socially and economically, but now when we have a real threat, they have feet of clay................. So much money and effort expended to provide a huge beauracracy to rule over us, but poor in our defense................... Emperors clothes for some of us I feel. They have failed us with allowing USA tech dominance, China outsourcing of our manufacturing, Energy outsourcing and then jobs insourcing from all the other countries.

The USA probably deserves to take Greenland, when the EU and Denmark only want more war with Russia.
Trump might as well take it as a security, a gift to the Americans, in return for peace and protection for Europe.
