Only a small clearance in Greenland and Denmark ... a little over a thousand years ago,The Norwegian Eirik Raude or you would say Eric the Red... (Born in Norway here where I live). Sailed from Iceland to Greenland and a colony was founded there... Iceland was at that time part of Norway and Greenland was then considered Norwegian territory... His son Leif Eirikson Sailed a few years later to America and built a farm in Newfoundland... (archaeological excavations have been found and several objects from the Viking Age).... About two hundred years later, Denmark and Norway get into a union with Sweden.... Sweden left the union and Norway remained with Denmark for four hundred years.... When Norway when the union ended, Greenland and the Faroe Islands remained in Danish hands... So Greenland has been part of Denmark for 800 years.
Denmark is now investing in its defence of Greenland with ships and drones. It's also opening up for more Greenlanders to join the military. Because of the threats from the US president. The US, China, Russia it's all the same
Why involving china and Russia? They definitely don't care about that inhospitable almost useless island lol and they're not even close to it and it doesn't provide any benefits to them, Russia already owns half of the Arctic
Russia already owns half the Arctic and china doesn't care about it anyways and it's far from it so why bring them? It's just the usa that needs that strategic island. Russia and China don't care about an inhospitable non useful island 80 degrees North of the equator
They are not facing the real threat they face though. The u.s. that is. They are bowing to the american threats and invest more in the defense of the island _against_ NATO's enemies...
What is now being added to Greenland's defense was apparently decided in 2019. Danish politicians are not exactly quick, especially when it comes to defense.
If I remember well, he did the same in his 1st term. It appears to be a strategy to flood and overwhelm the system, the people, and the media.. also performative leadership for his followers
In politics, everything is theater (representation, and image). If during his first term, Trump was lost, now he knows what he is doing. Obviously, he has a team that handles the legal aspects of these matters; he doesn't derive them from his own knowledge. With a few orders, he has repositioned U.S. policy, affecting that of many countries.
Everything that Trump says about Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal revolves around the NorthWest Passage which will be a very important shipping lane in the future if the Arctic ice continues to melt.
Who is supposed to to be a threat around the Northwest Passage, a depleted Russia with a failing economy and depleted military - not really a threat. Or is it China whose bailiwick is around the Pasific and southern hemisphere..
I am sorry but Greenland belongs to Denmark since 1721. LONG before America even was a thing. The map is not a menu where a country can go and shop worlds. If Denmark told America they want Hawaii, how would that sound to you? It is utterly ridiculous that you even bring this up as it would be normal. Denmark IS a ally to America and there is a military base up there so no America do not need, nor do they have a right to just take it. That would be the EXACT same thing that Putin is doing to Ukraine. Utterly bullshit. And the fact that America want it when the ice have melted from the climatechages is even dumber consider that America is one of the highest contributor towards the climate changes and the reason Greenland is melting is a large part Americas fault. Jesus, wake up, this is not even funny, you can not be this gullable.
It won't be the case though. As time goes by, the technology increase and we are able to make a better use of it. Meaning building more efficiently, crafting more sturdy and durable stuff, reusing things more. (If the failing capitalist system wasn't purposely engineering crap to maintain itself that is) What I mean by that, is that as time passes, we will need less and less to import huge amount of stuff by ships. Transport wood and coal and iron from accross the oceans all the time. That's a thing from the XXth century! It won't be needed in the XXIIth century at all. And less and less in ours.
@@Stephen64138 I can't see the end of container ships. They seem to be building them bigger and bigger so they can carry more and reduce transport costs.
It's not about shipping lanes. It's about prospecting for mineral resources in Greenland and trying to get dominance to do the same in Canada. Nato protects those waters because, as the name suggests, they are bordering the North Atlantic.
Greenland is not a Danish colony. If they were, they would not be represented in the Danish parliament as they are. Greenland is under the Danish crown, but has self-government. Denmark only has influence on Greenland's foreign policy and defense. The Greenlandic parliamentarians in the Danish parliament have been and still have the opportunity to be the deciding factor in votes in the Danish parliament and can therefore have quite a lot of influence on Danish foreign and domestic policy. Furthermore, Greenland has the right to secede from the Danish crown, that is their right and their choice and no one else's. So please stop referring to Greenland as a Danish colony.
Greenland nowadays have a population of like 50,000. 1500 yeard ago it barely had any people so the Vikings took and nobody cared (still nobody cares) and then after some time it became part of the danish kingdom then a subdivision so not a colony
And how is drilling more _(Drill, baby, yeah, drill.. ok... Good oil, yeah...)_ would make energy more affordable in the u.s.? Let's check the price at your local gas station, and check the price again in 4 years. See by how much it will have decreased. I'm ready to bet a full that it will have INCREASED, by a lot.
Executive orders are sadly legally binding. They are basically orders from the government (executive orders), in contrast to orders from the congress (which are from the legislative branch). They are legally binding, until the courts think that they are illegal.
sure that makes sense - but on that basis as a nations ages should it revert to the standard in eg Europe? Guess that’s a kinder reading of Trump’s policy…… not that I am prone to kindness to Trump!
Yeah sure.. just like here in Norway I hate the feeling of being taken care of by my goverment. And feeling sure that I can afford healthcare for myself and my children.
Don't wanna be that gal, but Greenland doesn't have NHS lmfao. Are you from the US by any chance, because we can tell. But yeah, the Greenlanders pretty much don't wanna get rid off the benefits that they would lose by joining the US... HOW SHOCKING! /s
Some of this is quite interesting watching as a leftwing British person. In the UK you have never been automatically entitled to citizenship if you are born here unless one parent is British or has settled status. And our national parks were mapped out to allow areas of resource extraction - eg Buxton which was omitted from the Peak District national park to allow quarrying. And our former government tried to deport refugees to Rwanda…. We also kickstarted the Industrial Revolution which kickstarted climate chaos. And our empire engulfed the world. So I guess most things Trump are really just old britishisms……
Trump won the popular vote so apparently the majority of Americans are in the same 'bubble' as your President.... perhaps stepping outside your bubble might enlighten you, if you dare. 🤣
@@jockeyladjockeylad8492 I know some true fascists from all over Europe and they don't like Trump at all, furthermore his social economic policies are far from fascist lad. Educate yourself instead of sprouting bs you've heard other people say cause Gentile and Mussolini would turn in their graves if the knew people are calling Trump a product of their ideology...
@@jockeyladjockeylad8492 fascism... So sick of reading and hearing about fascism this and fascism that, used usually only to label things that one does not agree with. A strong word that should be reserved to extreme postures, a word that inspires fear, used just to describe things that deviate a little from your own posture. You should feel ashamed for using a retoric like that. Is because people like you that real extremists are feeling more and more comfortable in their positions and people in the center sway more and more to the extremes, all while impeding civil discourse and consensus. Really, shame on you. PD: before you try to excuse yourself with some trench bs... No... I don't like Trump... But as much as I disagree with his politics, I would never qualify him as something so horrible and inaccurate as "Fascist"
Every POTUS makes money due to their presidency, Obama left the White House as a milionair where he wasn't a wealthy man before he entered it. Y'all were fine with that apparently. Furthermore; Trump didn't keep a penny of his salary in his first 4 years in office, all went to charity, he might do the same again contrary to every POTUS before him ... Or would you rather have the CBDC (central bank digital currency )?? And what's wrong with launching your own currency? Lots of people have done so lately. It's 2025 FCOL!
Except all did not go to charity, half did, the rest 220.000 have zero information around it and noone is responding to the questions about it. There is a long article about it on the internet. Learn to fact check, it would help Americans so much, because that is how the rest of the world avoid being so fooled.

You have a megalomaniac as your leader. If he could, he would rename your country Trumpland.
I seriously hope he doesn't read that.
I'd say it would rather be Trumpistan.
The whole world laughs at a president who has turned his own stupidity into a status symbol.
Yup, but the problem is that his stupidity is dangerous for the world too ...
Not really many countries agree with him / his political views
Y'all genuinely think Biden or kakala are any better😂
@@grandetristesse3370 Oh YES!!! Before you spew stupid things, look up Biden's achievements in his 4 years of presidency!
@ Thank goodness!
He's insane. A Megalomaniac or should i say a Magalomaniac! He wants to become President for Life just like his buddy Putin!
The only reason stopping him from renaming the USA as 'Trumpland' is he couldn't continue to use the MAGA slogan.

Trumph doesn't understand oil is a commodity, the price set by OPEC. Oil companies aren't nationalized, unless that's part of his plan.
