A proposed strategy for Greenland involves offering the native Inuit population a percentage of oil and gas revenue modeled after the Alaska Permanent Fund. This approach aims to win over the local population, who reportedly harbor resentment toward Denmark due to historical grievances. By establishing Greenland as a U.S. protectorate with resource-sharing agreements, the administration hopes to block Chinese expansion into the Arctic and secure long-term strategic interests.

Danish doctors and nurses reportedly conducted a decades-long program of forced sterilization against Inuit girls as young as 13, often without their parents' knowledge. This program, which lasted from the 1960s to the 1990s, is described as a form of genocide and a violation of the Nuremberg Code. A proposed American policy would offer these victims and their descendants restitution through a national fund fueled by Arctic oil and gas revenues.

Investigative journalist Nick Shirley has reported from Greenland, claiming that many local residents, particularly the youth, are open to U.S. involvement to gain independence from Denmark. The push for Greenland is compared to historical "Manifest Destiny" and the acquisitions of Hawaii and Alaska. Supporters argue that without this move, the U.S. will lose its status as the global reserve currency and face economic implosion.
