💨 Abstract
President Donald Trump is considering acquiring Greenland, viewing it as a strategic priority to counter Russian and Chinese interests in the Arctic. The White House has discussed using the U.S. military for this goal, despite Greenland's rejection of the idea. Options include outright purchase or a Compact of Free Association. European leaders and Canada have expressed support for Greenland's autonomy. The U.S. sees Greenland's resources as crucial for high-tech and military applications.
