Greenlanders are increasingly worried that their homeland has become a pawn in the competition between the U.S. , Russia and China .

They fear Trump ’s aim to take control of Greenland , which holds rich mineral deposits and straddles strategic air and sea routes, may block their path toward independence.

Greenland, part of Denmark since 1721 , has been moving toward independence for decades .

Greenland guards access to the Arctic at a time when melting sea ice has reignited competition for energy and mineral resources.

The U.S. effectively occupied Greenland during World War II , building a string of air and naval bases.

President Harry Truman ’s government offered to buy Greenland because of “the extreme importance of Greenland to the defense of the United States” Denmark rejected the proposal but signed a long-term base agreement.
