OK, it's so great to see you guys, first of all.
And gosh, you know, I know you started out as comedians.
This is a moment where we need humor in dealing with this issue because it's a lot of heavy stuff.
So bottom line is the United States has said to its NATO partners that it needs to have a greater presence on the island of Greenland, which is the largest island in the world.
It's an Arctic island.
And there it is in the background.
It's cold and snowing here.
And under the terms of a treaty from 1951,
The United States does have the right to do pretty much anything it wants to militarily here.
So the island is part of the kingdom of Denmark, but it is strategic security-wise aligned with the United States.
The Greenlanders, and there are only 58,000 of them that live here, they have been going through a process of a kind of a long, slow divorce with Denmark.
But it's not a finished divorce.
They're not independent yet.
And their view is they want to be independent of all of you guys.
And they're annoyed because when President Trump said, well, we just got to have Greenland and he used the language, we'll take it if we have to, because they're like, wait, we live here.
So you can't just take it.
So everybody's been on very high stress around this.
I'll give you my personal view based on my background working on geopolitics globally, but also I've been very focused for the last five years or so on the geopolitics of the Arctic to try to understand why is this happening?
And I think part of the answer is Ukraine.
So the president's trying to bring the war in Ukraine to an end.
