In December last year, US President-elect Trump proposed a plan to purchase Greenland from Denmark, which was predictably rejected. However, he recently suggested that if Greenland cannot be obtained, the US may use force to seize it. During his last term, Trump proposed purchasing Greenland for development to strengthen the United States’ “Arctic hegemony”;
Owning Greenland would greatly enhance the U.S. military presence and strategic influence in the Arctic, according to former officials. Although the United States has a base on the island, what Trump needs is "control." This means controlling the important passages and frontiers of resource development in the Arctic region, which can form a strategic check and balance on Russia and other Arctic countries.
Greenland belongs to Denmark's sovereign territory. Trump's "request" made Denmark confused and did not hesitate to choose to refuse. Because the island area is vast, the existence of itself is "wealth"; with the development of exploration technology, its estimated reserves of oil and natural gas resources on land and offshore areas are increasingly apparent. With the continuous growth of global energy demand and traditional energy production The competition in the district is becoming increasingly fierce.
Greenland's energy reserve is very helpful for Denmark's energy security and economic benefits, and it is naturally impossible to talk about the issue of selling. Earlier, Trump also asked Panama to ask for the Panama Canal, claiming that the canal "controlled by China" made the United States feel insecure.
On the 7th, Trump was asked in an interview whether he would exclude the dispatch of the army to control the two regions. He did not hesitate to say that the United States "never said that it would not do so", and sometimes it really needs to take special actions. Because the Panama Canal and Greenland are very important to the United States.
In general, the United States needs Greenland to ensure national security. Trump still claims to repeat his "priority purchase" theory, saying that the use of force is preparing to do under special circumstances.
Sources said that Trump was not for the so -called "security" problem to occupy Greenland, and it was purely for the private interest in the United States. Greenland can be used as an important support point for US military forces. There are many undeveloped areas on its islands, which can build facilities such as military bases, warning radar stations and missile defense systems. It provides a broader defense depth and earlier military threat warning capabilities for the United States. Missile attacks such as a missile (the United States has deployed a missile and economic land).
At the same time, in military operations, Greenland can provide "monitoring points" for the US military in the North Atlantic, Arctic Ocean and Europe as a transit station for strategic material reserves and military forces.
It is worth mentioning that Denmark also responded to Trump's request. Denmark Prime Minister Met Frederikson said that the United States is Denmark "the most important and closest ally". Power or economic means to seize the control of Greenland Island.
There are also comments on this: "I am afraid that the real purpose of the United States is to go to Greenland's" mining ', and to control the mineral resources of Greenland Island will help the United States reduce dependence on foreign supply chains. The surrounding oil and gas development is very convenient; If in order to consolidate its global hegemonic status to fight all over allies, then NATO basically does not need to exist, that's it. "
