Greenlandic Prime Minister Múte Egede has made a strong case for independence from Denmark, stating that the Arctic territory must take control of its future. In a recent speech, Egede highlighted the limitations of Greenland’s current relationship with Denmark, describing it as a colonial holdover that has hindered the nation’s development.

Egede argued that Greenland’s reliance on Denmark for trade and international relations is unsustainable. He called for direct engagement with global partners, emphasizing the need for greater autonomy. “For our cooperation with other countries, and our trade relations, cannot continue to take place solely through Denmark,” Egede said, underscoring the urgency of Greenland’s independence push.

Sometimes it takes centuries for a week of change to occur, and other times it takes only a week for centuries of change to occur.

Trump is catalyzing centuries of change.

As far as I know....no one has ever polled the 56,000 residents of Greenland.

It is a fact that there is a ‘divide’ among the ‘connected’ (gov’t elite) and the normal residents. Probably 20-percent consider themselves Danish....rest are proud Greenlanders. If a vote were held...yeah, majority would want to dissolve the relationship with Denmark. I think they see Iceland as an example....they could make it on their own.

For the inhabitants, it would be much better for the US to purchase directly from them, than from the Danish Government.

The Greenlanders would maintain balance to the force should Canukistan become a State.

I’m beginning to like the idea of US controlling every part of North America north of Mexico.

If Greenland can get clear title from Denmark, then they get to keep the full purchase amount themselves, or at least that would be my hope since I want Greenland.

I was busy Monday. When I built the links list, it exactly covered the 6th, remarkably.
