Europe should move troops into there ASAP. They can publicly say they’re doing it to support Trump too.. “Oh Trump was saying how important it is to defend Greenland from Russia and China so this is why we decided to do it…”
KookyLight9218 on
How is this even news? Isn’t that supposed to be a given?
Globetrotter888 on
So… defended by the US?

Greenland says allies should be… allies.

There would be NATO troops in Greenland. Nuance is in from which part of NATO they would come.

Trump and the GOP are traitors to America and our allies. Putin is pleased with his assets.

Absofuckinglutley ! Canada stands with Greenland and Denmark.

Yeah, what a crazy thought – their defensive alliance should defend them.Â
Hopefully this is not needed

Norway stands with Denmark. It’s not much, but you always stand by your brother when in trouble.
Rincetron1 on
Yes, 100%.
But their recent statement, where they say they don’t want to be American ***or Danish***, is kind of stupid. Nations that want to annex them aren’t going to hear anything but the “or Danish” part. Denmark has more military personnel than Greenland has people, and it’s part of NATO.
The independence part comes at the price of an active, credible military. Greenland does not have that, its outsourced that to Denmark. An independent Greenland that wouldn’t have an army *yet* would enjoy protection from NATO is impossible.

I’ll fight for Greenland, as an American. I will not fight against Greenland, as an American. They, in no way shape or form, have ever been a problem.

Yeah, they should be

The only person this benefits is Putin.
For EVERYONE ELSE it’s a disaster.
Especially the Americans.

Trump is a pedophile with a rapist mentality of “we’re going to take Greenland one way or another”

US: Absolutely – sending troops there immediately

I suspect that France and possibly the UK have a submarine off Greenland as we speak.

Well obviously, I’m Canadian I would 100% back a NATO action against the Nazi states of America, if it meant standing up to facism and defending our allies.

Crazy world trump has lead us to where NATO needs to defend against America. I wonder how the military and veterans feel about thisÂ
They are the last line of defense against a dictatorÂ

The idea that usa needs to occupy a nato country in our backyard so that Russia or China do not simply doesn’t make any sense.

Will Americans do something about their government?
Numerous-Bowler-8677 on
Slightly offtopic, if Greenland declare independence from Denmark which they are legally allowed to do, are they still in NATO? Greenland is in NATO only because of Denmark right?

I think the goal is to end nato. That’s what putin really wants

If this ever happens… Canada and EU should immediately stop ALL trade with The USA. All flights to and from The USA should also be banned. We would need to isolate the USA.

Nato vs USA was not on my bingo card.

Every country in the EU needs to move troops to Greenland asap fucking now. Help the US generals continue to push back against nazi trump by making it a massive shit show for nazi trump to even try.

Remember when we were NATO. That’s what that racist piece of shit has taken from us. The entire world no longer trusts the US. Happy magats?

>That would be a very dumb move that would hurt the EU and Canada’s economies just as much if not more than the U.S. Despite all the tough talk, NATO is not going to get into a shooting war with the U.S. over a frozen island wasteland that has less than 60,000 Danes living on it and no vested economic interests for themselves.
The whole point is mutually assured (economic) destruction if US soldiers engage NATO ones. And in this case, given The USD’s status as the world’s reserve currency and all NATO members (as well as nations like Japan who also have a vested interest in not having The US torpedo the current world order) hold US treasury bonds, it would be worse for The US than other countries. Populations are also more likely to put up with economic hardship if they believe in what their country is fighting for, which would not be the case for The US
NATO doesn’t need to get into a shooting war, it just needs to station troops in Greenland as a tripwire force and wait to see if The US wants to trigger a war that will result in the economic destruction of the western world. If push came to shove it’s not even clear the US military would carry out the order to shoot at allies they’ve served in joint operations on

At this point, every country on the face of the Earth needs nuclear weapons.

Name any other time period that a President could/would say this and the room wouldn’t fall apart laughing.
It’s a punchline if he weren’t so dumb.
Trump says “we can’t have Russia as a neighbor” …so let’s move our property line ‘closer’?
LordDagnirMorn on
I agree. And we, Canada, should send what we can to help even if don’t have a lot in terms of defense
AbraxasTuring on
Mark Rutte needs to stop being a milquetoast and *LAY DOWN THE LAW* in a very unambiguous way to deter DJT.

Is there no clause in NATO for this exact situation? Seems a bit shortsighted
WillYeByFuck on
We should.
I just don’t know if, push comes to shove, if we will go to war with America over this.
But on the upside, global nuclear war will be GREAT for the housing market. Watch out guys, the dip is finally coming.
SensitiveRace8729 on
I doubt the US army would follow him on that.
The American Bully always attacked weak victims, they don’t want a conflict with powerful nations.
