Summary

84% Informative

Donald Trump has made clear he has ambitions in Greenland , a vast and sparsely populated Arctic island to the northeast of Canada .

Trump has proposed buying Greenland from Denmark , an idea rejected by the Danish government.

But there is another complication: significant sympathy for China , America 's preeminent contemporary rival.

A large majority want an independent policy on China and not to follow Washington 's lead.

U.S. sees China as a "pacing challenge" globally and a competitor in the Arctic that is seeking to extend its economic, scientific, and military reach and influence.
