The better option is that Denmark buys USA. They could make it a great country. Really, Danish are open for that: https://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/denmark-offe...

If they don't include anti-democratic clauses in the contract the result will be exactly the same as if USA bought Denmark, that is Denmark will become a small state in USA.

That's not real, it's meant to be "satire".

Greenland isn’t for sale, but China has been reported to be trying to charm the Greenlanders to join China.

Hong Kong on ice?

Why China always try to capture the area of other country?

Historically, it really isn't one of the worst offenders.

While certainly influenced by it, we don't live in the past, we live in the present. There was a time when one could say that the British weren't one of the worst offenders when it came to expansion. But then they were. China's expansionism might be new but that doesn't make it less of an issue.

Not gonna happen. Doesn't Denmark ultimately have e veto power (National Security at least) over major issues in Greenland?

Buying is a loaded word. How about joining USA ? Then USA can duke it with Russia in the Artic game.

Or USA can crunch some numbers...might be cheaper to invade Canada. Fifth time is the charm as they say. Joking OK...maybe ;)

If only there was another way to get countries to do what "we" want, but nicely, because it would be mutually beneficial. We could call it "soft power".

>"No rational person one would complain"

One does not simply sell a nation and a people. The colonial days are over.

No one is buying or selling people, at least not as slaves or for soap. However a territory has a value and a country can be compensated for it, assuming people at all levels agree to it. Greenlanders would be Americans as suppose to "Danish"
