Greenland during World War II
During World War II, Greenland was ruled by the posted Danish official Eske Bruun. No supplies could be received from Denmark, and Denmark could no longer exercise its sovereignty over the island. On the 11th of April 1941, the Danish envoy in Washington, Henrik Kauffmann, went against the wish of the Danish government and signed the ‘Greenland Treaty’ that transferred the defence of Greenland to the USA. The island could then receive supplies via USA and Canada.

The Greenland Treaty, also known as the Agreement between Denmark and the United States of America for the Defense of Greenland, was signed on April 9, 1941. The treaty gave the United States the right to establish military bases in Greenland during World War II. In exchange, the United States agreed to:
- Provide aid to Greenland
- Maintain the status quo for the duration of the war Waive the Danish government’s rights to remuneration for the use of defense areas during the war
- Waive the Danish government’s rights to remuneration for the use of defense areas during the war
The treaty also included Article X, which gave the United States the right to veto any future adjustments to the treaty. This caused diplomatic tensions between the United States and Denmark-Greenland, and no agreement to change the treaty was reached until 1951.
Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. The United States has considered purchasing Greenland from Denmark several times since 1867.

After the USA declared war on Nazi Germany on the 11th of December 1941 and thus became an active part in World War II, the USA began to establish military airbases in Kangerlussuaq and Narsarsuaq, among other places. The two bases became very important for the allied forces during the war, as Narsarsuaq especially came to serve as a military hospital for wounded soldiers on their way from Europe to the USA.
THE USA Offers to Buy Greenland
In 1946, as the Cold War was in its inception, the USA, with President Harry S. Truman (Democrat) at the forefront, offered to buy Greenland for the price of $100 million USD in gold based on strong military and geo-political interests, but this was rejected by the Danish government. The USA and Denmark did, however, reach an agreement that allowed the USA to establish Thule Air Base in the northernmost part of Greenland in 1951.
The two countries had previously entered into land deals when Denmark, in 1917, sold the Danish West Indies (now the US Virgin Islands) to the USA for $25 million USD. The Self-Government Act from 2009 states that Greenlanders are their own people, and thus Denmark cannot ‘sell’ the country over the head of Greenland’s Self-Government. In fact, the transfer of sovereignty over land through sales has not been practiced globally for many decades.
