Denmark is navigating the complexities of Greenland's potential independence amid U.S. interests, particularly from President Trump, who seeks access to the territory's mineral resources and strategic military positioning. Experts suggest that U.S. companies can mine without direct control, while Denmark has committed over 60 billion Norwegian kroner to bolster Greenland's defense capabilities.
