Donald Trump

Greenback land

The renewed ambition to acquire Greenland reflects an intriguing blend of geopolitics, national aspiration, and economic strategy. Championed now by US President-elect Donald Trump, this idea has resurfaced with remarkable seriousness, raising questions about sovereignty, international relations, and global security.

A land-grab agenda for modern times

As the world enters 2025, former U.S. President Donald Trump, now preparing for his second term, has reignited the flames of territorial ambition with rhetoric that harks back to America’s imperial past.

One would have imagined that post the 6 January 2021 attack on Capitol Hill and the subsequent impeachment for insurrection, Americans would have realised the dangers of supporting an amoral anarchist like Trump. Far from it, his base is as rock-solid as ever, even as the former President has now been charged with a crime. His illiberality, and his xenophobic and undemocratic actions rail against America‘s purported stance as the beacon of morality, democracy, and progressive enlightenment

A future spelt out 175 years ago

These words were uttered by the famously intellectual Donald Trump, but he is by no means a soloist in his obnoxious milieu. It has become fairly commonplace, particularly among US Republicans, to deride anything seen as even mildly progressive as either communism or a pathway to a slip- pery slope.
