'We Are Not for Sale': Greenland Once Again Rebuffs Trump Call for US Ownership
"A whole lot of gullible people were telling me he was the anti-war, anti-imperial candidate," one observer said of Trump.
The point is to water down and normalize the concept of imperialism to serve Russia.
The same thing they did with "impeachment" and "coup" and pardons.
I don't think the US threatening to take over other countries is somehow related to Russian imperialism.
It's quite literally the same old US imperialism that has always existed, only less sugar coated.
Greenland has the nearest coastline to the North Pole, and Denmark argues that the Lomonosov Ridge is in fact an extension of Greenland.
According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, this would mean that through the extension of it's continental shelf, Greenland basically has control of the seabed of most of the arctic ocean and deep into russian waters. This gives it exclusive rights to resources on or below the seabed of that extended shelf area.
Greenland thus is not only important for the control of northern trade routes that are opening up because of climate change, but because it comes with the control over huge swathes of resources on or below the arctic seabed.
It's all about oil and minerals.
Greenland also has a very large amount of the world's fresh water above ground and that's going to be a highly valuable commodity in the not-too-distant future. Especially in the U.S.
