Betcha that trend to autonomy stops the instant the USA makes an offer.
------------------------------------
Certainly that's possible, yet consider this.
Around 1700, Great Britain conquered India, establishing their
Crown Jewel, the Raj; yet 250 years later, India was independent.
But how?
Over time, Britain eroded, never recovering from the Great War while
India marched forward to independence and a world power ranking
as Commons and Lords increased their autonomy, decade after decade.
Denmark is a minor nation/state in an increasingly decaying continent
w/nominal control in Greenland, if that.
The latter has proven energy assets requiring investment capital the Danes
are incapable of providing.
Is an economic marriage of convenience not possible given these circumstances?
The only question is who and when.
