Who wants to bet Greenland (and Panama) was suggested by Putin as some sort of " you will leave glorious legacy". It makes zero logical sense otherwise. Why would US want full ownership of a frozen solid, even after 100 years of global warming at current pace, piece of land when they already have unlimited military presence and control over the region due to being close allies with the owner.
- ZeroGravitas 2y agoThis is the only thing that makes sense to me too. Putin encouraging this to undermine the USA's (already shaken) moral standing to object to Ukraine, and Taiwan (and maybe the baltics and the phillipines) being absorbed by their neighbours. Though, does it account for the European reaction to wannabe empires nibbling away at territory on both ends? Seems certain to backfire for everyone involved.
