@@stevewang2 since when did imperialism and colonization became a crime. Grow up, this is the natural human evolution. As we explore a place and if there is nothing there we build something. Even if there was something there, if one group wants it more than another, they get it. And contrary to popular belief, there is still a lot of this planet that is unexplored and colonized. We barely know what is in the continents alone and that is only 30% of the planet. We have 70% of the planet, mainly the oceans largely unexplored.
@ what National Geographic? Still all joking aside, imperialism and colonialism was never prosecuted as a crime in the international courts. So again, prove imperialism and colonization is a crime!
Denmark and Greenland have been together since 1380, when Norway entered a union with Denmark under the Danish crown, which meant that Greenland became part of the Danish-Norwegian union. After close to 500 Years the union split up in 1814, after the Napoleonic war, when Denmark was forced to entrust Norway to Sweden, whilst Greenland, Faroe Islands and Iceland stayed with Denmark. Today Greenland is an integrated and autonomic part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and it's NOT for sale. The only country You can buy today is The United States of America In US money rules everything - just ask Elon Musk - he knows the price he had to pay. (Denmark also can’t sell Sweden, Germany, France and, for that matter, any other Country to the US)
You do realize territories change hands in the past? It’s just not as common now but doesn’t mean it is not possible. Also, there was a time that Denmark seized to exist when it was invaded by Germany in 1941 and the USA actually took over Greenland then. So, at some point, the USA actual took over Greenland.
@@floriandc5695 You are clearly a victim of the dumbing down indoctrination that is currently taking place in the United States. Hence these facts, from which it becomes clear, that the US did NOT currently take over Greenland, but US became a right of disposal for military purpose for the duration of the war. Se real facts below: Denmark declared itself neutral when the war broke out, but after the German invasion in 1940, the country was occupied and the Danish government entered into a cooperation agreement with the Germans. Denmark tried to maintain a neutral and independent relationship, but this became very difficult considering the German occupation. In August 1941, after negotiations with the Danish government in exile, the United States entered into an agreement with Denmark that allowed the United States to establish military bases in Greenland. This was made official in the so-called "Greenland Agreement" or "Agreement on Military Cooperation", which was signed by the Danish ambassador to the United States, Henrik Kauffmann, acting on behalf of the Danish government in exile. The Danish ambassador to the United States, Henrik Kauffmann, entered into the agreement with the United States, even though he had not received explicit instructions from the Danish government in London. Kauffmann was convinced, however, that the U.S. presence in Greenland was the best way to protect the island from a German invasion. Denmark, which was under German control, could not protect Greenland itself, and therefore the agreement was recognized as a necessary step to secure Greenland's strategic position. U.S. Obligations: In exchange for access to Greenland, the U.S. undertook to protect the island's sovereignty and leave Greenland when the war was over. U.S. military bases were also established, including airports and radar stations, which were crucial to the Allied war effort in the Atlantic and against Nazi Germany.

Maybe, India can apply to be the 53rd state of America. Then the Indian educated class obsession to migrate to America will simply vanish, all will be Americans overnight. Or the entire British Commonwealth 😂
That is no plain obsession, it also due to CEOs of Indian companies asking employees to work for 80+ hours which can be attributed to modern day slavery. Naturally educated class wants to get to those countries where they can enjoy work life balance. Just fyi..
This is an absolutely brilliant analysis Shekhar - kudos. Trunp is thinking 50-70 years ahead and that is precisely what makes US and UK superpowers, the ability of strategic thinking over a long term imagining multiple scenarios, something that we completely lack. Denmark will never be able to defend Greenland from primarily China and to a lesser extent Russia and Europe will also find itself helpless. Trump is mitigating those risks today….. Thank you so much for this….
We don't lack strategic thinking. We think 500+ years ahead, and as a result we get to see concepts like "Akhand Bharat" which is criticized by low iq stupid people.
Trump should instead offer to buy India. I'm 100% sure most Indians would immediately agree to the proposal, standing on one leg 🥹. No more struggle for H1b and Green Card, direct citizenship! 🤣
Don't talk sh*t, Just becoz Indians want to settle in The US doesn't mean your dum idea, For example, Millions of Germans, British and The French Made America even though they were the most Powerful country of the day, that doesn't mean they became part of The US, the same thing applies to India, in 2014, India's Economy was 10% of US , It is 15% will beyond that in the coming years
Imagine a nation which cant pay its debt is trying to buy such a huge piece of land.... How would they do it? OFC by printing money, which means more inflation across the globe.
You do realize that most of USA debt is actually owed to itself. Two, yes we can actually print more money. Lastly, if the USA increase its economy and grows the the debt becomes less of an issue (macro/microeconomics 101).
@floriandc5695 look at your debt to China please, then also look at your inflation please. Wish you had taken more than economics 101 to understand how your money printing policy has screwed the whole world.
He is not first president to show interest in Greenland, it is so strategically located now with rare earth minerals exploration with melting glaciers, Trump want to cement his legacy with acquisition of Greenland, Canada is pure banter by Trump
There were earlier proposals to buy Greenland by the US: Internal discussions within the United States Government about acquiring Greenland notably occurred in 1867, 1910, 1946, and 2019, and acquisition has been advocated by former American Secretaries of State William H. Seward and James F. Byrnes, privately by former Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, and publicly by President Donald Trump, among others. After World War II, the United States secretly offered to buy Greenland; public discussion of buying the island occurred after Trump's 2024 reelection. So Trump is not as crazy as most people think. It's largely for national security to prevent the Russians and Chinese from nefarious designs and using Greenland for military and mercantilist purposes. Greenland's population is too small to defend itself and China is a danger to Greenland through resource mining and environmental pollution. Maybe the best way forward is to incorporate Greenland as a protectorate of the US or a COFA agreement like Micronesia in the Pacific. That way, it can get carefully managed investments from the US and also defense from the US military.
@@pzendeit is in public domain, acquisition on Greenland even discussed in American Congress defence committe, u will see more movement toward US getting some kind of agreement with bipartisan Congress support from Greenland
China is already very much invested in Greenland after buying mining rights in Greenland. It is not so easy buying Greenland. China is already 100 steps ahead of everyone else.
Someone immediately finds imperialism in America's desire to have Greenland as their part but he could not find any Chinese imperialism for 70 years in occupying Tibet, part of Ladakh and aggression in Doklam, Arunachal Pradesh etc, etc inspite of being a citizen of suffered nation. To him controlling of Gwadar Port of Pakistan or Hambanthota Port of Srilanka etc, etc are not imperialism. Thise are the narratives of a so called progressive Media and it's unbiased Journalists.
I doubt this will ever grow legs. His political rivals have firm controll of the institutions that matter most as it relates to actioning policy domestically or abroad.

@gsdubs9084 are you even a subscriber in the first place? On a side note, it's called constructive criticism, something which you should have learnt to take in your home, school or your first job.
You misspoke when you called the native or indigenous people of Greenland an “Indian tribe’. You of all people should know that Christopher Columbus was looking for India and found the Americas. When he saw the native Americans he called them Indians or ‘Red Indians’. This is erroneous to call native/indigenous people ‘Indians’. Please do not propagate this error.
It isn't imperialism. It is an invitation for Greenland to join the US. The leader of Greenland is open to negotiation and will probably make a counter offer for some kind of free association with the US where Greenland is a sovereign state but the US takes responsibility for Greenland's defense and Greenland uses the US dollar. Greenland wants to be independent but true independence isn't possible when your possibility is that small. It could be that Trump just read where Greenland is with Denmark and gave them an alternative. Greenland will probably want to negotiate for US money for infrastructure and investment. Saying the US wanted to purchase Greenland was just trolling because that is obviously absurd. Trump was courting Greenland and will offer them a better deal than Denmark.
Greenland belongs to inuit people and Trump will liberate them from Denmark. The inuit are all related here from Alaska, all across Canada and Baffin Island up to Greenland. We're all American up here
there is no surprise in this, that is how america bought alaska from russia and other areas. its just a purchase with mutual agreements. america was not fifty states to begin with.

Well that is the country’s choice. India is free to be imperialist if it chooses to. Actually, doesn’t India still have that Kashmir region territorial dispute with Pakistan?
@floriandc5695 it is country's choice agreed, if you are defending imperialism in modern times I don't know what to say If a state is corrupt and failed and people are persecuted it makes sense to intervene overthrow the tyrants and liberate people, instead of turning a blind eye on the suffering of people, but imperialism is driven by greed The Kashmir dispute is because, the king had signed the instrument of accession but then Indian leaders lacked the resolve to get the territory back immediately, and paks with help of tribals took over that part of Kashmir
@ you do understand the words analogies and examples correct? Look if you are going to make an argument at least make a logically consistent point otherwise we really cannot have a decent conversation on what is going on. You can’t say one country is tyrannical while ignoring so called tyrannical actions of other countries. You are trying to point out that modern imperialism should no longer happen when it’s been going on since the dawn of time. Just to be clear, for the USA it’s called Manifest Destiny and not Imperialism. If you’re not familiar with this term, look it up. Also, you probably haven’t travelled much of the world but all countries are corrupt to one extent or another. It’s just that some are better hiding it than others.
This is all in Trump' delusional mind and does not reflect America's view. Don't take it seriously. I live here and everyday is a clown show from King Trump. :)
Half the country voted for him but sure you should be taken seriously because Americans pour their hearts out to you over tech support calls. He got his first scalp - the Governor of the great state of Canada even before taking office. He is using tariffs as negotiating tactics to force Canada and Mexico to comply with his immigration crackdown demands. Panama and Greenland are signals to China.
Oh thank you for adding yourself as a traitor to America we're just waiting to get a complete list so we can send you to the country that you feel most comfortable in as a constitutional republic just doesn't work for you! And the Democratic communist party has been completely crushed with little to know evidence of returning we thank God and we thank Trump every day for that!
To all those bhakts who thought Trump would end the war. Basically he started as way more dangerous than Biden. By the end 2028, those who supported him will end up eating their own words 😂😂😂
The only one will be eating their own words are people like you who talk without thinking researching or having any valuable content whatsoever! You spew crap you eat crap you are crap!
American imperialism is a natural tendency of the American state since independence. As the American economy and technology excellence grinds down, imperialism may be much vaunted. What else is left?

It could be that Trump just read where Greenland is with Denmark and gave them an alternative. Greenland will probably want to negotiate for US money for infrastructure and investment. Saying the US wanted to purchase Greenland was just trolling because that is obviously absurd. Trump was courting Greenland and will offer them a better deal than Denmark.
Puerto Rico still is not a state
What " The Print " Think of a Open Debate of Delhi Assembly Election 2025
Greenland belongs to inuit people and Trump will liberate them from Denmark. The inuit are all related here from Alaska, all across Canada and Baffin Island up to Greenland. We're all American up here
The Economist also called Bangladesh as the country of the year 2024 😅
there is no surprise in this, that is how america bought alaska from russia and other areas. its just a purchase with mutual agreements. america was not fifty states to begin with.
Not imperialism if we're actually purchasing them.
No, he is just high.
America equivalent to "Kashi" of Kalki movie..
Trump wants to implement Mao's label of America.
To honour Mao? Yes, in a way, because Trump aspires to be an imperialist American.
Thanks for telling us all your Communists without saying you're a communist as well as a liar! You clearly have zero ass idea what you're talking about. After all it was lying Obama who hung the Mayo Christmas decorations on the tree in the White House! But like the capabari I guess it's just easier for you to swallow your own crap!
Dear Shekhar Shb forget about what is to become of Greenland or Canada that are thousands of miles away from india, The latest is that New Delhi has extended the visa for its state guest Hasina Wajid.....that india would neither pay any heed to international norms nor it would care to the voice of the People of Bangladesh ! The cat has finally comes out of the bag !!
Why would India let go of a bargaining chip?
@@nishadass6960 Bargaining chip ? your words actually shows how you see the whole scene. the precedence that now india has set in the region and before the international community, will have its implications in a not so distant future !!
Next step would be the best legal team Delhi would accord to its state guest, right !!
@@SajidKhan-mf8ts yawn. Whatever!
Wow! You gave me more facts than any media in the west
He should buy India instead..I guess no indian will object😂
What the hell?!
FYI, Truman was a democrat.
that time democrats were "republicans" of today
Sir you had a huge fan base in Pak - but your biased opinions has lead to a sudden fall and some have even unsubscribed you
And people were indifferent to Russian security concerns with Ukraine joining NATO.
Imagine Mexico joining Russia with some kind of military alliance. 😂
Wat a gr8 idea
Anyway he is just threatening
India to be the 52nd state of US
India ought to call for “ Akhand Bharat “ 😅😅😅
Putin has already called for the erstwhile Russian Empire. China wants Taiwan and Arunachal Pradesh(South Tibet) and control of the South China sea.
How will they defend Eastern Ukraine now? Russia will bring up this issue of self determination.
Same reason Russia wants Ukraine 😂😂.. Russia went aggressive on Ukraine but you people supported it suddenly when tables turned you label it as ' Imperialism' .. Funny
Greenland , Panama Cannel , Canada is More Own Security Concerm
They need Canadas resources
Whyzanawt?
Greenland is threat to Russia. If you don't give up ambition of Ukraine we would make it difficult fir you in arctic circle?
I am reminded of
"It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal."
Henry Kissinger
Never underestimate a MADMAN with a powerful military.
You do realize the USA has been trying to acquire Greenland since 1867. So was it mad then vs now just because Trump is saying it?
Well makes me think … Trump did a Joe rogan show and Modi did a Nikhil Kamath show …now Trump takes over the American continent and some Europe … what will Modi do ? 🤣 Maybe take over USA so that in one clean sweep he becomes Vishwa Samrat 😷
Modi should convince his buddy Trump to take over India ; that will solve the problem of H1-B visa once and forever as well as trade kerfuffles.
Indians analysts never get it. They are stuck in the 1800s.
Sir you have lost the track .. they are no longer interesting
We are not going on renaming other countriess in India
Well that is the country’s choice. India is free to be imperialist if it chooses to. Actually, doesn’t India still have that Kashmir region territorial dispute with Pakistan?
@floriandc5695 it is country's choice agreed, if you are defending imperialism in modern times I don't know what to say
If a state is corrupt and failed and people are persecuted it makes sense to intervene overthrow the tyrants and liberate people, instead of turning a blind eye on the suffering of people, but imperialism is driven by greed
The Kashmir dispute is because, the king had signed the instrument of accession but then Indian leaders lacked the resolve to get the territory back immediately, and paks with help of tribals took over that part of Kashmir
@ you do understand the words analogies and examples correct? Look if you are going to make an argument at least make a logically consistent point otherwise we really cannot have a decent conversation on what is going on. You can’t say one country is tyrannical while ignoring so called tyrannical actions of other countries.
You are trying to point out that modern imperialism should no longer happen when it’s been going on since the dawn of time.
Just to be clear, for the USA it’s called Manifest Destiny and not Imperialism. If you’re not familiar with this term, look it up.
Also, you probably haven’t travelled much of the world but all countries are corrupt to one extent or another. It’s just that some are better hiding it than others.
More hot air from trump, we already have a base up there. He will fail to lower grocery prices.
SEKHAR SIR , SO TOMORROW IF I BECAME POWERFUL I CAN RENAME "GULF-OF-MEXICO" AS "GULF-OF-SHAMIKBHATTACHARYYA" ?
Canada should annex US since.it is.bigger in land.area 😂😂
Canada 40M people, USA 330M people. USA also has most powerful military force in the world. It’s not about land size, sheesh!
Trump should buy Jerusalem too.
Shekhar Gupta is a silly analyst with silly politics.
Imp..imp ...imppp.....immpppp.....immppppp...imperialism...blah blah blah
I absolutely do not care what some foreign derka derka thinks of my President.
Greenland 🇬🇱 becoming a part of America is good for both America and Greenland. Also Denmark can save the free money giving every year to Greenland.
America has no Kings or Queens.
America is not imperialist.
This is all in Trump' delusional mind and does not reflect America's view. Don't take it seriously. I live here and everyday is a clown show from King Trump. :)
Half the country voted for him but sure you should be taken seriously because Americans pour their hearts out to you over tech support calls. He got his first scalp - the Governor of the great state of Canada even before taking office. He is using tariffs as negotiating tactics to force Canada and Mexico to comply with his immigration crackdown demands. Panama and Greenland are signals to China.
He is dead serious. He is POTUS from 20 Jan. Its all part of MAGA project 2025.
Oh thank you for adding yourself as a traitor to America we're just waiting to get a complete list so we can send you to the country that you feel most comfortable in as a constitutional republic just doesn't work for you! And the Democratic communist party has been completely crushed with little to know evidence of returning we thank God and we thank Trump every day for that!
To all those bhakts who thought Trump would end the war. Basically he started as way more dangerous than Biden. By the end 2028, those who supported him will end up eating their own words 😂😂😂
The only one will be eating their own words are people like you who talk without thinking researching or having any valuable content whatsoever! You spew crap you eat crap you are crap!
American imperialism is a natural tendency of the American state since independence. As the American economy and technology excellence grinds down, imperialism may be much vaunted. What else is left?
DT = 108 kg meat
MAGA-fest destiny... 😆😅😂🤣
Return of American imperialism? what planet is this guy inhabiting? forgot all those color revolutions!
CTC= cut the crap
Let it not be forgotten, the vicious 50 year long Arctic war between Denmark and imperial Canada: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_War#Conflict
Y do u people give this convict so much traction in his preposterous BS
