The upcoming independence vote in Greenland has become a focal point of discussion after U.S. President Donald Trump expressed his interest in acquiring the autonomous territory during a recent joint session of Congress. Many view this election on March 11 as a pivotal moment in the potential move towards true independence for Greenland from Denmark.
Analyst Noa Redington emphasized the significance of the election, calling it “historical” and suggesting that it could lead to discussions about real independence between Denmark and Greenland for the first time. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for Trump’s proposal. Retired Copenhagen resident Vibeke Baekgaard dismissed the idea, questioning the President’s sincerity and motives.
Canadian resident Shane Woodford expressed concern about the potential global implications of Greenland’s independence, labeling the situation as “scary.” As the debate around Greenland’s future continues, the world watches closely to see how the election will unfold and what it could mean for the island’s autonomy and relationship with Denmark.

If Greenland joins the United States it will be the worst mistake of their wives
I’m pretty sure Canada wouldn’t want to live under a dictator/King Donald and Putin.😊
Trump keeps saying the US is keeping our countries safe, not true, our countries are not antagonistic. It’s the US we need to be safe from! Join Canada with our shared values if you decide not to go it alone. Stand strong 🇨🇦🍁
Trump buy for his own.
And Greenland will believe this, after Puerto Rico?
Trump wants the resources …full stop. Trump is going to have more rhan a bloody ear in the very near future .
Isn't the US posing a threat to Greenland's national security? Also, Trump says he needed Greenland for national security proposes but I think the real reason is natural resources. And last time I checked, Greenland is generally a happier country than the US, and the US has a higher rate of poverty than Greenland. I don't think Greenland would actually become rich as one would think.
One way or the other….
Canada and greenland should join
"We support your right to choose your own future, and if you join us we will keep you safe from what we will do to you if you don't choose to join us." Don the Con.
He only wants it for his own glory, and to a lesser extent, his country's glory.
Donald Trump should go to Greenland to really push for them to join the USA
It’s funny bc you can see many many people in congress laugh immediately as soon as trump brings up Greenland lmao
Trump is dead serious. Just ask Putin.
Give them 100k each. Then send the Palestinians there
He cannot be trusted. Trump would take everything they have and give them nothing for it.
If Greenlanders are moving towards sovereignty, why would they turn around and agree to join the most oppressive colonial nation on earth?
Move the U.N. headquarters out of the U.S. maybe Europe. How about that? They are not the good guys anymore.
I don’t think so
There’s nothing green about this land
Only snow and ice
So why it is called green land ?
Trump administration will change its name to maralago land
I believe it’s totally best name
Ummmm you will be a war depot for America…. Naval base’s and missile base’s… nothing more.
Heights? Depths
That’s insane
Half of Greenland GDP comes in form of investiments from Denmark every year
So he started bully canada and now he see that doesnt work so hes gonna say its your choice too greenland 😂 then he says one way or another lol i dont know greenland that looked like a threat. Just remember you join usa and you get all the problems that come with it.
Reminiscent of Germany in 1930! Listen to his cronies laugh as he hints at taking over a peaceful country.
Canada and Greenland need to join forces and be allies together and against USA.
Another country that doesn’t think about Canada. Why don’t they think that we are right beside Canada, closer than any other country?
greenland has less than 100000 people. they won’t be a state with 2 senators and a rep. they would just be a territory, like puerto rico. trump crew seems focused on deals for mineral wealth. elon prob wants lithium or there is some big gas reserve with easy access as climate warms. either way ppl on greenland get shafted
what a disgusting display by the american republicans. for supporting him and his insanity and aggression to peaceful nations, and for cheering him on. I am a Canadian and I support Greenland, which is OUR neighbour. I support their way of life, their values and their sovereignty.
Denmark and Greenland been picke..give it up guys or be a Ukraine..i must say China and Russia is much better in acquiring territory.. China claim the whole sea and Russia Ukraine.. America just a talk.. Greenland should show a little resistance.. freedom is still ideal of being a sovereign country no matter hard it could be
Trump wants to turn Greenland into his very own piggy bank.
Nobody in greenland wants to be part of america 😂 get over it.
Join Canada it is closer . Makes more sense for Canada's defense. Canada already has Alaska to our west and continental US to our south we do not need US on our East coast .What is US trying to do , totally surround Canada . And then what take us over. Keep Greenland independent. Keep it as a neutral zone .
😂
That was a direct threat to invade Green land….
N E V E R trust trump, not ever. he doesn't keep his word. if there's a contract, he'll sue. He l*£s . Have nothing to do with him! russia will interfere with any vote. Be aware!❗️
Lancaster New York 🇺🇸 near Buffalo
Just establish an effective military base there then, Greenland doesn’t need to be owned by the US only to be exploited by them.
Think about it Canada, Alaska to our west border, Greenland to our east border, the US to our south. US would have us boxed in. They want to own the entire continent and area!
Denmark supports Greenland. It is stupid for them to be independent.
🇨🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦
I support Trump
We stand by Greenland from Canada, don’t ever trust the USA, they are untrustworthy and their President behaves just like Putin in Russia. The EU and Canada will be great partners and true allies you can trust and for support.
😂
For Canada what would be best is if Greenland stayed Danish, For Greenland what would be best would be to join America but if not second best option is to stay Danish, whether they believe that or not. I hope they stay Danish, but they wont. They will vote for independence and I believe they will eventually and inevitably be absorbed into the United States. They'll realize being independent is hard, and neither Canada or the U.K. can afford to take them in. America will present them with a deal they cannot refuse if the world remains at peace, and if the world deteriorates they will just take it. This will happen regardless of what happens in Canada.
I don't think USA should get involved. I mean, look at all the problems Greenland has 🤣🤣🤣
Notice how he never gave them the other choice
Don't do it, rather be independent
Trump wants a North American empire, adding Canada, Mexico and Greenland to the USA.
He'll not stop here.
US is a dictator countey now…I hope Greenland will be safe. Say no to US!
Wat the …..
