2024年，特朗普再次公开表示对格陵兰岛的兴趣，引发国际关注。尽管2019年他曾因提出‘购买格陵兰岛’遭丹麦和格陵兰当局断然拒绝，但如今其言论背后或有更深层战略考量。首先，格陵兰地处北极要冲，随着全球变暖，北极航道与资源开发价值日益凸显，美国希望强化在该地区的存在以抗衡中俄影响力。其次，作为北约成员国丹麦的自治领地，格陵兰虽拥有高度自治权，但国防与外交仍由丹麦主导，而美国已在岛上设有图勒空军基地——这是其最北端的军事设施，具有重要战略意义。特朗普若再度执政，可能通过加强军事合作、经济投资或施压丹麦等方式，间接扩大美国在格陵兰的影响力。此外，他或将利用‘购买论’作为谈判筹码，推动美丹关系调整，甚至试探格陵兰独立意愿。尽管直接购岛几无可能，但特朗普手握的地缘政治、军事部署与外交杠杆，使其在北极博弈中仍具相当‘底牌’。
In 2024, Donald Trump reignited international attention by once again expressing interest in Greenland. Although his 2019 proposal to ‘buy’ the island was firmly rejected by both Denmark and Greenland’s authorities, his renewed remarks may reflect deeper strategic calculations. First, Greenland occupies a critical position in the Arctic. As climate change accelerates, the region’s shipping routes and untapped natural resources are gaining geopolitical value, prompting the U.S. to bolster its presence to counter growing Russian and Chinese influence. Second, while Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark—handling most domestic affairs—it relies on Denmark for defense and foreign policy. The U.S. already operates Thule Air Base there, its northernmost military installation, underscoring Greenland’s strategic importance. If Trump returns to power, he could leverage enhanced military cooperation, economic investments, or diplomatic pressure on Denmark to indirectly expand American influence in Greenland. He might also use the ‘purchase’ narrative as a bargaining chip to reshape U.S.-Danish relations or even probe Greenland’s stance on independence. While outright acquisition remains implausible, Trump still holds significant cards—geopolitical positioning, military assets, and diplomatic leverage—that keep him relevant in the Arctic power game.
