Here's why the US is picking a fight with Denmark over Greenland - and what Greenland thinks about it
Briefly

Donald Trump is determined to annex Greenland, claiming it is essential for U.S. security and access to untapped resources. Despite Denmark's repeated assertions that Greenland is not for sale, Trump has intensified his rhetoric, suggesting potential military force may be an option. Recently, Vice President JD Vance visited a U.S. base in Greenland but faced significant local opposition, as 85% of Greenlanders prefer to maintain their autonomy rather than join the United States. Greenland gained self-government in 2009, allowing it the potential to pursue independence.
Trump continues to champion his vision for annexing Greenland, claiming it's crucial for U.S. security and resource control, even suggesting military force could be employed.
JD Vance's visit to Greenland reflects the U.S. government's interest in the territory, as they seek to bolster presence amid opposition from both Danish and Greenlandic officials.
