European leaders moved swiftly to back Greenland on Tuesday after Donald Trump named a special envoy to the Arctic island, sparking a new diplomatic frenzy on the continent.
Trump’s appointment of Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry as his envoy to Greenland marks another move in his gambit to annex the self-governing Danish territory. The U.S. “has to have Greenland for national security,” Trump said at a press conference on Monday.
Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen reacted with anger to the announcement and summoned U.S. Ambassador to Denmark Ken Howery for a dressing down. Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen called the appointment “completely unacceptable.”
Several European leaders reacted to Landry’s nomination by expressing solidarity with Greenlanders.
This is just noise from the Trump government to hide the Epstein file releases. They are desparate.
Considering his behavior in Venezuela has proven he’s more than willing to commit terrorist attacks and other Undeclared acts of War you have to wonder if Europe is going to take it a lot more seriously now. Who’s to say US ships won’t move off the coast of Greenland and start blowing up fishing vessels and hijacking ships?
I wonder how that would go.
Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. Denmark itself is in NATO.
While Greenland is not an independent member of NATO, it still is a part of NATO as a constituent part of the Kingdom of Denmark,
Is Trump really willing to not only abandon NATO, but actually go to war with it?
I don’t think so.
This is all just a misdirection campaign from all the other shit he’s doing. That he’s also hoping might help with this lowest ever poll ratings.
Those drones Ukraine uses to blow up the Russian Navy are produced in the EU. Let’s say there is a certain risk involved with threatening with ships near European shores.
Americans will put up with a lot, but the extrajudicial killing of white people would be a bridge too far for most
For a dude hellbent on not looking like the king of nazis, he sure does act a lot like Hitler.
hellbent on not looking like the king of nazis,
Where’d you get that idea?!
Epstein distraction
I will straight up St. Patrick’s Brigade and join the Greenland Army. God I hate my government.
He’s a dementia addled drug addict who has already been committing state sanctioned murder so they should definitely be weary at the very least
