Introduction to Donald Trump's StatementsTrump has expressed his intention to buy Greenland, comparing it to a "huge real estate transaction", and has expressed interest in annexing Canada and the Panama Canal, surprising the international community with such statements.2. Historical and Geopolitical ContextNo Western leader had made similar statements since World War II. The US ruling class interprets this as an opportunity for territorial expansion, reflecting a "new frontier" mentality.3. International ReactionsThe Danish government has stated that Greenland is not for sale and is an autonomous territory. European leaders, such as the German Chancellor and the French Minister, have emphasized the inviolability of borders, highlighting resistance to any form of imperialism.4. Strategic and Economic InterestsThe British Minister highlighted concerns about Russia and China in the Arctic, while the Italian Prime Minister interpreted Trump's statements as a signal to great powers, reflecting growing Chinese activity in strategic regions.5. Historical References to AnnexationThe ideas of annexation have their roots in the 1929 crisis, when capitalism was considered to be in crisis. Alternative proposals, such as technocracy, emerged as solutions, challenging traditional forms of government.6. The Technocratic MovementThe movement, led by Howard Scott, argued that power should be exercised by technicians, not by capitalists or proletarians, questioning the effectiveness of democracies and proposing technical solutions to social problems.7. Elon Musk and TranshumanismThe connection between Musk and Coutrot's transhumanism suggests a continuity of thought, where technology is seen as a means of transcending human limitations, reflecting an ideology that seeks the evolution of the species.8. Recent Developments in GreenlandGreenland is rich in natural resources, such as uranium and oil, making it a strategic issue for the United States. Control of the Northern Sea Route, now dominated by Russia and China, could change with the annexation of the island.9. Reactions and Opinions in GreenlandDuring a visit by Donald Trump Jr., a poll revealed that 57.3% of Greenlanders supported the idea of joining the United States. Greenlandic leader Mute B. Egede expressed openness to discussions, highlighting the importance of dialogue.10. Final Considerations and Future ImplicationsTrump's aspirations regarding Greenland have the potential to redefine geopolitics, especially in the context of Arctic rivalries. References to the technocratic movement suggest an interconnection between past and future in annexation policies.
