While Denmarks constitution recognizes the islands right to decide on its own independence, if it became a sovereign nation it would lose the much-needed subsidies, which make up 60 percent of Greenlands annual budget.

Yes, and just as the UK occupied neutral Portugals Azores Islands during the same War. The UK would've liked neutral Ireland's Atlantic ports.
