1:45Now PlayingGreenland's prime minister has said he is ready to speak with Donald Trump about stronger cooperation, but talked down the president-elect's idea of the US controlling the island.
Instead, independence remains a top priority for the island, which is a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.
Donald Trump has also expressed a desire to takeover Canada and Panama in recent weeks. He says it's all in the name of national security.
Sky's defence and security Michael Clarke explains why Mr Trump is interested in taking Greenland.
