Stephen Miller — Nations are not entitled to territories ‘they cannot defend.’ Miller makes the case for Greenland takeover.

Stephen Miller argues Greenland is central to the next era of polar competition, calling it a “raw and unfair deal” for America to defend a massive territory at full cost while Denmark keeps full control:

“Greenland is not essential for America’s national security. The new domain of international competition is going to be polar competition; that is where more and more resources are being spent by our nation’s adversaries. Greenland is 25% larger than Alaska. Greenland is the size of one-quarter of the continental United States. With respect to Denmark, Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and a tiny military. They cannot defend Greenland. So they want us to spend hundreds of billions of dollars defending a territory for them that is 25% bigger than Alaska at a hundred percent American expense, but they say while we do this, it belongs 100% to Denmark. It’s a raw deal. It’s an unfair deal.”
