Russian state media seems to be engaging in a high-stakes psychological game by linking Donald Trump, the incoming US president, with Greenland, hinting at an undercurrent of a silent Arctic war. Andrey Gurulyov, a member of the State Duma, appears to be articulating an enigmatic interest in the island, as if it’s a cake that can be sliced and shared. Meanwhile, Trump’s son seems to be an observer in this game. Denmark’s stance is firm, with their prime minister making it clear that Greenland is not a piece of merchandise up for sale. All this is a power play over territory and interests, with Greenland appearing as a pawn in this grand game.
