Interest in buying Greenland has "popped up from time to time in American politics," Tom Høyem, Denmark's former minister to Greenland, told ABC News in an interview.
“Mr. Prime Minister, have you spoken to President Trump yet?” I asked as he fled a lunchtime news conference on Tuesday in the capital city, Nuuk (population 20,000). Egede, who is 37, wore a green zip-up sweater, stared straight ahead, and was walking toward me. He said nothing.

While President-elect Donald Trump has been making confounding statements about the United States acquiring Greenland by diplomacy, money or force, the world’s largest island (ahem, an autonomous territory of our NATO ally Denmark) has already been rising as an off-the-path tourist destination.
The EU and Nato have taken a vow of silence over Greenland after Denmark requested its key allies refrain from reacting to Donald Trump’s threats to seize the Arctic island.
In a groundbreaking move that echoes Jamie Dimon’s 2024 Davos predictions about tokenization revolutionizing real estate markets, Lympid, the rapidly growing RWA tokenization platform, is announcing the successful acquisition and upcoming tokenization of its first property in Greenland.
The anticipated tourism growth comes amid heightened global attention on Greenland, fueled by U.S. President Donald Trump’s renewed interest in acquiring the island—an autonomous territory of Denmark—since his reelection in November. Trump has suggested he may use economic or military influence to persuade Denmark to relinquish control.
The picturesque country of Greenland has become a popular destination for the many seniors who are traveling in record numbers to all corners of the world.

An overwhelming majority of Greenlanders have rejected US President Donald Trump, saying they do not want to be bought by America, according to an opinion poll. The first survey of Greenlanders since Trump renewed his interest in buying the Arctic island found that 85 per cent did not want to leave the Kingdom of Denmark and become part of the US.
