Tom Cotton in New York Times op-ed: The U.S. should buy Greenland
Sen. Tom Cotton on Monday called for the United States to buy Greenland from Denmark, citing the potential economic benefits in purchasing the mineral-rich Arctic island territory.
Cotton’s op-ed comes as President Donald Trump has expressed interest in purchasing Greenland, which is an autonomous region of Denmark. Last week, Trump canceled a visit to Denmark, after Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the idea “absurd.” But the United States is also planning to establish a consulate in Nuuk, the capital of Greenland — another sign of increased investment in the region.
“Greenland is rich in a wide array of mineral deposits, including rare-earth minerals — resources critical to our high-tech and defense industries,” Cotton wrote. “China currently dominates the market in these minerals and has threatened to withhold them from us to gain leverage in trade negotiations.”
