Nice video, Trebbie! While Greenland has abundant natural resources, it would also take abundant resources to develop them. There is extremely little infrastructure there.
I used to wonder how they even settled centuries ago on who gets that island. So I'm not surprised about the dispute or the new border. Did you know the U.S. shares a border with Cuba? Or that Spain shares a border with Morocco? Then of course there's France sharing a border with Brazil.

I always found the Danish response to Trump to be extremely hypocritical. "Greenland doesn't belong to the Danish, Greenland belongs to Greenland" Soooo.... you'll be renouncing your sovereignty over it then? What a clown show.
Greenland is officially sovereign, just under the Kingdom of Denmark (i.e. has a monarch as the head of state even though they actually do absolutely nothing). They have their own governors and elections. Same with the Faroe Islands
@@Zirtip No they are not "A sovereign state is a state that has the highest authority over a territory" they do not have the highest authority can they engage in international relations with out going though Demark? No they can not. They have there own governors and elections so? ever US state and territory does to how does that make Greenland special at all? BBC "Greenland is the world's largest island and an autonomous Danish dependent territory with limited self-government and its own parliament." PBS " Greenland gained autonomy from Denmark in 1979, but the former colonial power still has control of the island's most important affairs." And Denmark's own website "The act means that Greenland can assume additional areas of responsibility. However, foreign policy, defence policy, and security policy cannot be transferred to Greenland." and one from Greenland "Although Greenland is geographically a part of the North American continent, it has been politically and culturally associated with Europe for about a millennium. Since 1721, Denmark has held colonies in Greenland, but the country was made part of Denmark in 1953."
@@zach2382 From wikipedia: "Greenland is a self-governing entity within the constitutional monarchy of the Kingdom of Denmark, in which Queen Margrethe II is the head of state. The monarch officially retains executive power and presides over the Council of State (privy council). However, following the introduction of a parliamentary system of government, the duties of the monarch have since become strictly representative and ceremonial" They're self-governing within the Kingdom of Denmark (or the Danish Realm), which contains Greenland, the Faroe islands and Denmark proper. Obviously they wouldn't have their own army or foreign relations, but they have enough autonomy to govern themselves while not being a proper country.
Greenland is a very young country, and it's on its way to independence. They need to want it, and they need to be ready for it first. That is what the Danish prime minister was referring to, and why a sale isn't possible. This has been blindingly obviously for some time, if you had just the slightest knowledge on the subject, and something Trump (or his advisers) should have known. That is why he was made fun of.
3:08 The US seeking to annex Greenland isn’t that crazy. The current government in Greenland can’t extract the mineral resources it has. Its primary sources of income are fishing and subsidies from Denmark.
The US wanting to own Greenland makes perfect sense. Thinking it is for sale does not. They are looking for investments. They have no interest, and shown no interest, in selling themselves.
@@fastertove _Thinking it is for sale does not._ I disagree. Until the conversation is started in earnest there really isn’t a way to know. _They are looking for investments. They have no interest, and shown no interest, in selling themselves._ Whether it’s a direct acquisition or engagement in ways that respect its sovereignty and autonomy it would be better if China doesn’t get a foothold in the region.
They have no interest in selling their land. They have not shown any interest in it historically, show any interest in it now now or is likely to do that in the foreseeable future. I agree that China shouldn't get a foodhold - obviously. Denmark also has a final say in some cases deemed to be potentially security issues, which has led to declining chinese offers. Greenland has already burned their fingers with an Australian mining company, ruling is still out but it can be incredible costly, why they are very reluctant to what they allow to be mined. Greenland (and Denmark to an lesser extend) is much more protective of the environment that the US is. This is one of the major reasons, along with the pure economically, why the US want to acquire everything. @@skyserf

She didn't say “Greenland is not Danish”. That is a wrong translation of what she actually said in Danish. The real sentence should be "Greenland isn't Denmark's" translated from "Grønland er ikke Danmarks".
The northern passage will be sought after if the ice melts, which is ongoing. Greenland and Canada will likely fall prey to USA, Russia, or China before the year 2100 if I were to guess.
Think about it, if Canada, U.S.A., Greenland, and Mexico all united, then we could call it, "The United States of North America". Then we could annex all of the Caribbean islands too and maybe even central america, just think about how big that would be.....
