Er ikke så vanskelig å se hva som er så attraktivt med USA. Og når i tillegg ALLE vinner på det! Unntatt Kina og Russland da. USA vinner på det. Grønland vinner på det. Og Danmark vinner på det til og med
Da slipper Danmark å betale for tapssluket år etter år.
It’s called “free association”. It’s a model the U.S. has successfully implemented with Pacific nations such as Palau, Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands. Each of those tiny countries (huge geographically, minuscule in population, just like Greenland) is a sovereign, independent nation. But each of them also gets many of the benefits of being part of the United States, including America taking full responsibility for their defense.
And this is the part the pundits leave out. Independence is expensive. You learned this when you first got a job. For a country to be independent, it has to establish a military, build and staff embassies, and unless it’s a libertarian utopia, pay for its own welfare system. None of which Greenland can do.
Under a free association compact, Greenland would be independent without the costs. It would maintain full sovereignty while aligning closely with the U.S. for defense and economic collaboration.
