Eh, from my understanding Greenland has both home rule* and fully voting representation in the Folketing. Whereas PR does not have Representatives in Congress that can actually *vote*, and while it mostly has internal autonomy, there are a few areas where it doesn't.

*It got that recently, though.

Jeg tænker at den eneste vej ud er, at det grønlandske folketing beder om tilstedeværelsen af danske soldater.

Så sender vi et kompagni soldater derop med lette våben og stingermissiler, og lægger en fregat i fjorden ud fra Nuuk.

Jeg tror ikke at USA har lyst til at skyde på os. Hvad siger I?

Which incidentally is why it was so bizarre that the Naleraq leader was like "oh can't be any worse than Denmark" - like yes, obviously, Danish colonialism, awful, but they do get two full voting members out of 179 in the Folketing, as opposed to, at best, one non-voting House Representative!

Greenland has two representatives in the Folketing while Alaska has only one representative in the House. Maybe Canada should liberate Alaska based on Trump’s idiotic logic?

I oppose war with Denmark.

Greenland is a fully integrated part of Denmark and they have representation in the Folketing. They have no desire to give up their Danish citizenship with the right to live, work, and study anywhere in the European Union.

Why trade the right to be in the Mediterranean with the Gulf Coast? Stupid.

I forlængelse af nedenstående, er det væsentligt at få med, at de 4 Nordatlantiske mandater i forbindelse med valg til Det Danske Folketing, ofte er afgørende for, om regeringen bliver rød eller blå.

Altså hvilken retning de vil være parlamentarisk grundlag for.

Så venligst - ikke mere kolonisnak.

Grønland har i lighed med Færøerne 2 mandater på valg hver 4. år til Det Danske Folketing, der består af 179 medlemmer.

Grønland styreform: Demokrati med valg til Landstinget hver 4. år.

Påstand: Befolkningsantal 30.000.

Korrekt: >56.000

Greenland is NOT a colony of Denmark. It's a part of Denmark. So, not only does it have representation in the Danish Parliament, unlike (eg) Puerto Rico's and Guam's representatives in Congress, the votes of Greenland's representatives in the Folketing actually count. 😳

Især fordi der var langt billigere og gennemtestede alternativer på markedet, som ganske fint ville have kunne løst opgaverne Danmark står overfor. Blandt andet Gripen, Eurofighter og F18 Hornet. F35 har været et brunnæse projekt for det danske folketing. Intet mindre.

Messerschmidt og Støjberg vil med sikkerhed ikke forlade X. De ville miste deres Gud Elon Musks opbakning ( og penge?)
Men tag nu som folketing at vedtage at X ( og andre misinformationsreder) lukkes ned minimum 6 uger før valget.

🔄 {𝗮𝙅𝙎𝘿} My 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 notes about the article… ⤵
{𝗮𝙅𝙎𝘿} My further notes about the article… Angle 1: Feasibility Map — What Would Have to Happen (And What Can't) Start with the boring but decisive point: there is no lawful ❝envoy-driven❞ pathway where the U.S. simply ❝makes Greenland part of the U.S.❞ Greenland’s status can change only through Greenlandic self-determination + Danish/Greenlandic constitutional process + (if the U.S. is involved) treaties and U.S. domestic law.1,4,5 Non-Negotiables Greenland decides independence: The Self-Government Act is explicit that ❝decision regarding Greenland’s independence shall be taken by the people of Greenland,❞ and that any independence arrangement requires Greenlandic political consent and a referendum in Greenland, plus consent of Denmark’s Folketing.4 Foreign/defence policy remains ❝affairs of the Realm❞ unless independence occurs: Denmark’s own summary of the constitutional set-up spells out that certain responsibilities are not transferable under the self-government framework, including foreign, defence, and security policy.5 Threats/use of force are out-of-bounds under international law: UN Charter Art. 2(4) bars threats or use of force against territorial integrity/political independence.7 NATO’s treaty text also binds parties to settle disputes peacefully and refrain from threats/use of force inconsistent with UN purposes.8 The Only Plausible Lawful Routes to ❝Greenland Becomes U.S. Territory❞ Independence first, then a voluntary compact with the U.S. Greenland could choose independence under the Self-Government Act’s mechanism (Greenlandic decision → negotiations with Denmark/Greenland authorities → consent of Inatsisartut → referendum in Greenland → consent of Denmark’s Folketing).4 After independence, Greenland (now sovereign) could negotiate some relationship with the U.S. (defence pact, free association, customs/market alignment, even a cession treaty in theory). But the key is: it has to be Greenland-led and referendum-legit.4,5 Denmark cedes sovereignty by treaty — politically improbable and still self-determination-constrained Denmark could theoretically enter a sovereignty-transfer treaty with the U.S., but doing that against Greenlandic democratic wishes would collide with the self-determination premise embedded in the 2009 framework and would be politically explosive in Denmark and across NATO.4,5,8 Newsweek’s own reporting makes clear Copenhagen’s position is ❝not for sale / not annexable❞ and Greenland’s leaders insist Greenlanders decide.1 In both scenarios, an American ❝envoy❞ is, at best, a diplomatic messenger/influencer. He is not a constitutional lever. What the U.S. Can Do Without Sovereignty Change (And Already Does) Operate and upgrade the strategic mission at Pituffik: The U.S. Space Force describes Pituffik’s mission as missile warning/defence and space surveillance; the 12th Space Warning Squadron operates the Upgraded Early Warning Radar there.9,10 None of that requires annexation. Investment, infrastructure, mineral partnerships: The U.S. can offer capital and long-term offtake deals, fund ports/airfields, and support education/training. Those are ordinary statecraft tools and are compatible with Greenland’s insistence on respectful cooperation.1,2 Alliance-based Arctic posture: The cleanest route is boring: negotiate with Denmark and Greenland and use NATO + bilateral defence arrangements rather than pretending sovereignty transfer is a ❝project plan.❞8 What Crosses Lines (Legally or Politically) ❝Not ruling out military force❞ talk isn’t just tasteless; it presses directly against the UN Charter baseline.7 It also creates alliance poison because Denmark is a NATO member and Article 1 expectations are explicitly UN-aligned.8 Economic coercion framing matters because it signals intent: AP reports Danish intelligence warning that the U.S. is using economic power to ❝assert its will❞ and threatening military force against friend and foe.11 Even if tariffs are ❝legal,❞ using them as geopolitical cudgels against an ally over territorial outcomes is how you manufacture a legitimacy crisis. Bottom line on feasibility: if this becomes ❝real,❞ it won’t look like annexation. It will look like Greenland debating independence, then bargaining for security/economic arrangements — possibly with U.S. gravity in the mix — while Denmark and NATO try to keep the entire thing inside lawful, consent-based rails.4,5,8 Angle 2: Propaganda/Pressure Read — How the Rhetoric Does Work Even When Policy Can't Landry’s phrasing (❝make Greenland a part of the U.S.❞) is rhetorically maximalist. The practical effect isn’t ❝a plan❞; it’s pressure operations.1,2 The Main Framing Trick: Collapsing Cooperation into Sovereignty The story pivots on real strategic facts (Pituffik radar missions, Arctic competition, minerals) and then lets that reality bleed into an implied entitlement: ❝important to U.S. security❞ becomes ❝reasonable to own.❞ That leap is the propaganda move. It smuggles a colonial premise through a defence brief.1,9 A disciplined article would keep three buckets separate: Security cooperation (bases, radar, exercises) Economic partnership (investment, offtake, infrastructure) Sovereignty (who governs, who owns territory) Newsweek quotes leaders rejecting the sovereignty leap, but the headline/lede still normalise it as a live ❝aim.❞1 Ambiguity as a Weapon: ❝Volunteer Envoy❞ + Maximalist Objective Calling it a ❝volunteer position❞ while stating an annexation-level objective is classic plausible deniability: you get maximum headlines with minimum formal accountability. Reuters explicitly notes the volunteer/part-time framing while reporting the ❝incorporating Greenland❞ ambition.2 That combination is how you float coercive ideas while keeping official institutions half a step back. Target Audiences (it's Not Just Denmark) Domestic U.S. audience: signals dominance, ❝America takes what it needs,❞ and turns foreign policy into a brand-performance. Greenlandic politics: injects friction into independence debates by forcing Greenlanders to publicly distance themselves from ❝U.S. control❞ even when they might welcome U.S. investment.2,6 Denmark/NATO: tests whether allies will draw bright lines (and how fast).

Vil bare minde om, at et nærmest samlet Folketing i juni besluttede, at de har så meget tillid til Trump, at han må sende tropper til Danmark uden krav om, at de skal følge dansk lov.

Et pænt glad for at Alternativet ikke lagde stemmer til det vanvid.

Vi kan ikke opsige aftalen i dag.
