Other than USA at the moment, who exactly should Greenland be afraid of? If for whatever reason Russia would invade Greenland, then Denmark will invoke article 5. Even if US ignores that, the rest of Europe would fight Russia on Greenland, which in turn would spill over to Europe, and WW3 is a thing.
When the US argues that Greenland is defenseless without them, it's the same as the mafia telling a shop owner that he's defenseless without their protection - when in reality it is the mob who's the threat.
Furthermore it doesn't mater if some Greenlanders want to join the US, it is a democracy. The majority would want it. And by any measure right now, the majority do not want it.
- nemo44x 9mo agoNo one is fighting over the 30k people in Greenland. They are a colony of Denmark today and the argument is by what right? This is precedent. If the USA believes it is necessary to her security to liberate Greenland from Danish colonialism then what leg do the Danes stand on? They have a greater right to colonial rule?
- TrackerFF 9mo agoStephen Miller, is that you? Yes people are going to fight, even if it’s a losing battle. There’s no scenario where Denmark simply lays down, or where the citizens of Greenland will just let the US roll over. That’s a fantasy being perpetuated by the far-right, and swallowed whole by clueless Americans high on American exceptionalism.
