Denmark’s Army Chief Says He’s Ready to Defend Greenland Danish forces are moving to the island to show NATO—and Trump—that they’re serious about security.

www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

If Donald Trump makes good on his threat to use force to gain Greenland, it could set in motion a disastrous chain of events, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues: theatln.tc/nM4fmwGc

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

How far will Europe go to defend Greenland from Trump? The president’s disregard for international law exposes the continent’s reliance on the US. Leaders have hardened their language in support of Denmark, but the price of confronting him is high
