Not only that, iirc Denmark offered the US a much larger military presence on Greenland, and the Trump admin denied the offer. I think it even included some mining claims. Still not enough. It really seems like the goal is nothing short of full territorial control. But the reason appears murky. Like if it is saftey, why is larger military presence not enough? It really does appear to be a lie.

Note also, that is 6% of “sure, want to join the US, but I do not want to fucking meet them”
