In the midst of whining about how much he wanted to own Greenland, Donald Trump forgot what the territory was called.

    They gave the US sovereignty of parts of Greenland? I tried searching for news on this but couldn’t find anything. What are you referring to?

        “Sovereignty over military bases.”

        They already had that on Greenland since 1951. As recent as last summer Denmark even approved the same setup in mainland Denmark, so that the potential future American military bases in Denmark could be allowed to operate their bases under American laws instead of local laws, just like an embassy.

        Needless to say, this is wildly unpopular at the moment.
