Despite historical precedents like the Louisiana and Alaska Purchases, acquiring Greenland faces substantial legal, political, and financial challenges, with estimated costs ranging from $500 billion to $1 trillion and significant resistance from Greenlandic and Danish authorities. While the idea remains more of a provocative concept than a realistic scenario, the proposal highlights the ongoing strategic importance of Arctic territories and the complex dynamics of global territorial acquisition in the 21st century.
