Once again, the world's largest island finds itself at the center of a geopolitical imagination it did not invite. Donald Trump's posting of an AI-generated image of himself in Greenland's landscape is less a diplomatic act than a symbolic one — a reminder that Washington's appetite for Arctic influence has not diminished, even as Greenland's government continues to answer with the same quiet, firm refusal. In the long arc of great-power ambition meeting the sovereignty of smaller peoples, this moment is neither the first nor likely the last.
