“This should be a wake up call!” Trump’s True Motives In Greenland

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with journalist and China analyst Melissa Chen for an in-depth conversation on Greenland, China, American power, and the future of global security.

We examine why Greenland has become a central strategic concern for the United States, from missile defence and Arctic choke points to space, satellites, and early warning systems. Melissa explains why American control over Greenland is not a real estate fantasy, but a long-standing national security priority dating back more than a century.

The conversation explores China’s growing presence in the Arctic, its use of economic coercion, and its strategy of dual-use operations, including shipping routes, scientific research, and critical infrastructure. We discuss the Polar Silk Road, rare earth minerals, supply chain vulnerability, and how control over logistics and refining has become a decisive form of power.

A wide-ranging and forensic discussion about power, deterrence, and why the Arctic may define the next era of global competition.
