Summary
A YouGov poll found that 46% of Danes view the US as a major threat, surpassing concerns about North Korea and Iran but trailing Russia (86%).
Additionally, 78% oppose selling Greenland to the US, though 72% believe Greenland should decide its own fate.
The poll follows heightened tensions over Trump’s repeated claims that acquiring Greenland is an “absolute necessity” for US economic security.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has sought European unity in response, warning of shifting relations with the US.
What is the real reason trump wants Greenland?
Rare earth minerals, exclusive arctic economic zone… and a theoretically easy territorial expansion to ensure his unconstitutional reelection.
Also, prime real-estate for when the ice caps melt.
Also he is stupid. That’s probably an important reason.
That’s always important to keep in mind!
As an Icelander, I just know if Trump gets Greenland he won’t stop there. He’ll try to take Iceland too. I’m scared.
Mostly as a distraction while he pillages the government coffers and sells off foreign interests to Russia and China.
I feel he saw how big it was on a typical map and thought “I can double the size of America. All we have to do is kick out these no-name unimportant suckers who happen to be there”
An excuse to access the war purse strings.
