If Denmark is so adamant that Greenland is its own place, and it could never sell it because Greenland is Greenlandic not Danish.

Then why doesn't Denmark just release it outright?

I mean, I know exactly why the United States would be interested in buying Greenland is moreso than strategic but also the rare earth metals that China has been gobbling up deposits of around the globe to try and create a monopoly on.

So, I understand our reasoning. However, the Denmark reasoning for why it is absurd kind of doesn't make sense either.

If Greenland wants to join the US, it'll happen. But they need an incentive for that and giving Denmark a bunch of money doesn't help Greenland. Basically, Denmark is saying it won't sell out its citizens in Greenland.
