Who is an Expert on Greenland? Responses to Trump’s Greenland bids in 2019 and 2014 highlight the inherent interdisciplinarity necessary for Greenlandic expertise.

When news outlets seek expertise on Greenland, who do they reach out to? In a commentary with @arcticinstitute.bsky.social , I argue that the Arctic requires a diversity of expertise to garner understanding of any issue, specifically regarding Greenland.

Is the White House calculating the Cost of taking over Greenland? Pay attention to three points if the US calculates the cost of Greenland, with great cost for the Greenlandic independence ambitions.

"at least three issues rank higher than Greenland on Trump’s security political to-do list for 2025: 1) A peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, 2) A peace agreement between Israel and Hammas, 3) Increased deterrence of Iran."

Well that's a relief 🤔

Inside Trump’s Plan to ‘Get’ Greenland: Persuasion, Not Invasion The island’s population might not be easily convinced as the president tries to clinch what he may see as one of history’s greatest real estate deals.

“Mr. Trump’s advisers have discussed using advertising and social media campaigns to sway public opinion on the island [Greenland], according to another person briefed on the matter.” // My question: does this have a covert dimension? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Is the White House calculating the Cost of taking over Greenland? Pay attention to three points if the US calculates the cost of Greenland, with great cost for the Greenlandic independence ambitions.

According to @washingtonpost.com, the White House is calculating the cost of taking over Greenland.

If true, we are witnessing Trump’s most concrete effort to follow words by actions.
