Denmark and Greenland officials have firmly rejected U.S. acquisition proposals, a stance unchanged since President-elect Trump's 2019 interest and reinforced after his December 2024 Truth Social post urging control of the territory for national security. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the idea "absurd," while Greenland's government emphasized its autonomy and non-negotiable sovereignty under international law. No diplomatic negotiations, treaties, or economic incentives have advanced, rendering territorial purchase unprecedented and legally improbable before 2027. Traders' 90.8% "No" consensus reflects this entrenched opposition and historical precedent, with minimal catalysts like congressional support or bilateral talks emerging amid focus on other foreign policy priorities.

Sovereignty is defined as the transfer of the majority of the territory of Greenland from its current status as an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark to being under the formal governance or jurisdiction of the United States, either as a state, territory, or other classification within the US system.
An official announcement made by the United States and Denmark that Greenland will come under US sovereignty will qualify, even if the actual transfer of sovereignty is yet to occur. Only announcements of official agreements or actions (e.g. executive order, signed legislation, etc.) will count - mere posts on Social Media will not.
The resolution source for this market will be official information from the governments of the US, Greenland, and Denmark, however a consensus of credible reporting confirming that Greenland has come under U.S. sovereignty will also qualify.
