Repeating myself, but here we go: "-- on 4 August 1916 -- With a single stroke of a pen, the USA accepted that the whole of Greenland was Danish territory." (USA got the "Danish West-Indies".) Many might rather support the sovereignty of Kalaallit Nunaat than the Danish territory. However, if the US politicians are asking why Greenland is Danish territory then part of the answer is that the president of the United States signed an agreement about it some 110 years ago. #KalaallitNunaat #History #Colonialism #Imperialism #Archives #Greenland #Denmark #KalaallitNunaat #SupportGreenland

The Danish National Archives holds a ground-breaking document proving that President Donald Trump is wrong about Greenland

In a high-security storage facility at the Danish National Archives (Rigsarkivet) is a 100 year old sheet of paper with an American promise about Greenland. This is the fascinating story which President Trump apparently does not know, but which is perhaps more relevant than ever.
