Ex-State Dept. Official Predicts American Greenland by End of Trump Admin

European Allies' Limited Role

• 📉 Their influence has declined significantly since the turn of the century due to past decisions.

Proposal for Greenland's Integration

• 💰 A potential strategy for integrating Greenland into the U.S. involves an Alaska-style trust fund for its 57,000 residents.
• 🏦 This fund could provide benefits from oil, gas, and mineral royalties, aiming for each family to have at least a million dollars in 5-10 years.
• 🤝 The approach emphasizes enticing Greenlanders through financial benefit rather than coercion.
• 🗺️ Alternatively, a more forceful approach could involve taking control of military assets while leaving some towns under Danish administration.
• 🇺🇸 The speaker firmly believes an American Greenland will exist by the end of the Trump administration.

Iran's Leadership and Pressure

• 📉 The protests and killings have subsided, possibly due to Trump's strong threats.
• 👑 Potential successors include the Son of the Shah or the MEK, though the latter is opposed to restoring the monarchy.
• ⚡ The strategy involves keeping potential leaders alive through the threat of U.S. force, including economic pressure on financial transfers out of Iran.

China's London Embassy
