Let me guess, it is so USA could slap a base there?

… it relies on annual subsidies from Denmark worth some €500 million a year …

Seems likely to sink any serious independence talks. Doesn’t sound like they can survive on their own, at least not at present.

Wouldn't mind if they wanted to join us in Canada lol would make a fair bit of sense I think.

500€ million per year subsidy doesn't sound worth it for a giant slab of ice, we've already got plenty of that.
