6:08Now PlayingPresident-elect Donald Trump hasn’t ruled out military action in his pledge for control of Greenland. Trump says the U.S. needs the island for “national security purposes,” but Greenland has been tied both politically and culturally with Denmark for decades.

WSJ explores why any U.S. bid for the Danish territory is complicated and controversial.
