Episode 40: Greenland, Treaties, Tweets, and Power
What happens when international law runs headfirst into impulsive presidential posts? This week on Wine by the Case, Alexis and Chris pour a glass, crack open history books, and head straight into icy geopolitical waters.
The topic: Greenland—who owns it, who wants it, and why “dibs” is not a legally recognized foreign policy doctrine.
They break down:
Whether a country can legally take another nation’s land (spoiler: no)
Greenland’s role in Denmark, NATO, and Arctic strategy
How treaties and international law actually work—versus how Twitter thinks they work
Why a good Oregon Pinot helps when the takes get cold
Paired perfectly with Sokol Blosser Evolution Pinot Noir, this episode balances sharp legal analysis with dry humor and just enough wine to survive the discourse.
