According to Refinitiv, US President Trump once again made a high-profile statement on Monday (March 24) that Greenland is "crucial" to US national security, and even hinted at the possibility of "taking over" the island. At the same time, the arrangement for the US delegation to visit Greenland has sparked strong dissatisfaction among local leaders, and this political game over Arctic resources is turning into a diplomatic storm.

1. Trump's' Greenland complex ': from commercial acquisitions to strategic ambitions

Trump publicly stated that 'Greenland may be our future' and claimed that 'Greenlanders' have proactively contacted the US to discuss cooperation, but did not provide specific details.

This is not the first time Trump has expressed interest in Greenland. After his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., visited the island privately in January, Trump frequently mentioned this strategic location with rare earth and oil and gas resources.

2. US delegation's visit plan triggers diplomatic crisis

The US delegation led by Vice President Mrs. Vance planned to visit a US military base and watch a dog sled race, but was criticized as a "provocation" by the outgoing Greenland Prime Minister Eged, who explicitly refused to meet.

Egde strongly stated that 'this interference violates democratic principles' and criticized international allies for not explicitly supporting Greenland's right to self-determination.

3. Multi party power struggle: hidden currents surging in the Arctic chess game

Denmark strongly disagrees: Foreign Minister Rasmussen criticized the US actions as "lacking respect" and emphasized that "the timing is not right now".

The US side argues that the White House's visit aims to "establish a partnership that respects Greenland's right to self-determination," but cannot conceal its strategic intent.

The fierce competition for resources: With the melting of the Arctic ice, Greenland's strategic value has soared, becoming a new focus of the game between major powers such as the United States, China, and Russia.

Summary:

This' Greenland controversy 'is far from a simple visit dispute, but a microcosm of major powers vying for dominance in the Arctic. The Trump administration is singing the tune of "cooperation" while promoting substantive geopolitical layout; The strong responses from Greenland and Denmark highlight the vigilance and resistance of small countries in the game of great powers. With the acceleration of Arctic resource development, this internal struggle around the "last frontier of the world" may become increasingly intense.

The current Greenland dispute presents a complex pattern of "short-term neutral bullish, medium to long-term bearish" impact on the US dollar. If the event remains a diplomatic war of words, the US dollar may remain volatile; But if the United States really implements the acquisition action, it may trigger the following chain reactions:

US Europe trade friction escalates → Euro strengthens, suppresses US dollar

Arctic resource competition intensifies → US dollar settlement system for commodities challenged

Global safe haven funds may first flood into the US dollar and then turn to gold
