Greenland and the NATO crisis

I present the text of Eugyppius, an insightful German commentator, whom I have quoted many times. It perfectly illustrates the weakness and full indolence of European countries. due to the actions of European bureaucrats, Europe becomes the 3rd or 4th planet in all respect.

If 1 is outraged at the American attempts to dominate Greenland, he should consider what a dying Europe would be able to defy China, Russia or India reaching for this island. And who do you prefer?

The NATO crisis is worsening due to the fact that Trump demands Denmark to give Greenland to the United States after the Nobel Committee did not grant him the Nobel Peace Prize

Ruins Hvalsey church in Greenland.

A lot has happened since I last wrote, and most of them afraid a vast winter island called Greenland, which was first settled by the Norwegians in the mediate Ages, and which since the 18th century has been part of the Kingdom of Denmark.

The first specified event was a gathering of Danish abroad Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen on Wednesday with U.S. Vice president J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to discuss Trump's demands that Denmark let the United States to take over sovereign control of Greenland, possibly through any form of sale. Rasmussen did not scope an agreement with the Trump administration, telling reporters ominously: “It's apparent that the president wants to conquer GreenlandIt’s okay. ” However, Rasmussen said that both parties agreed to set up a very promising "working group" to address American safety concerns in the region.

The White home then denied the characteristics of this "working group" presented by Rasmussen. According to press secretary Karoline Leavitt, this was not a working group geared towards developing safety measures for Greenland, but alternatively a working group with more pessimistic intentions, whose aim was only to “talk method acquisition of GreenlandIt’s okay. ” What sounded distant optimism started to sound very bad again.

At this point, the events began to escalate. Want give an epic inhibition show, demonstrate determination and independency in the face of abrupt American ambitions in Denmark; Many European countries have announced sending soldiers to Greenland in a motion of "military solidarity" with Denmark. Germany sent a full of 13–15 soldiers (reports diverging) to defend the icy island from the Americans. They embarked on a matt-gray A400M Atlas transport aircraft, as well as many journalists who could take photos. Between the lines of the press accounts, Wagner's “Road of Walkiria” could almost be heard.

Unfortunately, Eurotards did not want to, in any hypothetical world, cross certain boundaries, creating conditions for anything that Americans could interpret as a demonstration of force in Greenland itself, so the Luftwaffe A400M aircraft had nicely landed in Denmark, thousands of kilometres from the disputed territory. From there all soldiers boarded a completely harmless commercial aircraft to Nuuk, Greenland's capital. While this was happening, German defence minister Boris Pistorius He desperately assured the press that it was a purely regular and planned mission.

Then, while our [German] soldiers were sitting for no reason in Greenland, all attempts to make a statement, without a real message to avoid the annoyance of the Americans, had the other effect – Americans were annoyed anyway. U.S. president Donald Trump announced on fact Social that all participants of this advertising run would be charged with a punishment work of 10%, which will be increased to 25% by 1 June 2026, "until agreement is reached on Greenland's full and full purchase".

For many years we have been subsidising Denmark and all the countries of the European Union, and not only by charging them with duties or another forms of remuneration. Now, after centuries, it is time for Denmark to return the favour – planet peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland, and Denmark can't do anything about it. They presently have 2 dog squads as collateral, 1 late added. Only the United States of America under the president DONALDA J. TRUMPA can participate in this game with large success! No 1 will contact this sacred part of land, especially since the national safety of the United States and of the planet is at stake.

In addition, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland went to Greenland for unknown purposes. This is simply a very dangerous situation for the safety, protection and endurance of our planet. Those countries that are active in this very dangerous game have put at a level of hazard that cannot be maintained. It is so essential to take decisive action to defend planet peace and safety so that this possibly dangerous situation can end rapidly and without doubt. As of 1 February 2026, all the abovementioned countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland) will be charged 10% for all goods shipped to the United States of America. As of June 1, 2026, the fare will be raised to 25%. This work will be required and payable until the conclusion of the Agreement concerning the full and unambiguous acquisition of Greenland. The United States has tried to carry out this transaction for over 150 years. Many presidents tried and for a reason, but Denmark always refused. Now, due to the Golden Dome and modern weapon systems, both offensive and defensive, the request for ACQUISITION is peculiarly important. Hundreds of billions of dollars are presently spent on safety programs related to the "Dome", including the possible protection of Canada, and this superb but very complex strategy can operate with maximum possible and efficiency, due to angles, meth and boundaries, if these territories are included in it. The United States of America is immediately open to negotiations with Denmark and/or any of those countries that have put themselves at specified large hazard despite everything we have done for them, including maximum protection, for so many decades. Thank you for pointing out this!

DONALD J. TRUMP

PRESIDENT OF THE USA

A fewer hours after Trump published the above note, the weather in Greenland deteriorated, and German soldiers canceled the "search expedition" scheduled for Sunday afternoon and They returned to Nuuk Airport to fly home a fewer hours before the scheduled date. This gave the impression that Trump's post on fact Social, full of content, frightened them and forced them to retreat from Greenland, which provoked hours of social media ridicule. In the end, we were able to convey a message, although not rather as we intended.

In consequence to Trump's criminal duties, Eurotards considered that no longer want to pay $1.5 trillion for the privilege of abolishing unilateral tariffs of 15% for all products exported from the EU to the United States. Therefore, They resigned from the trade agreement they negotiated with the Trump administration last July.

Dissatisfied with events so far, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre decided to launch another action yesterday, writing Trump's letter in protest of the retaliatory sanctions Trump has just announced. Trump responded to Støre This amazing note (Yes, It's real. ):

Dear Jonas:

Given that your country has decided not to grant me the Nobel Peace Prize for stopping 8 PLUS wars, I no longer feel the work to think solely about peace, although it will always be dominant, but I can now think of what is right and right for the United States of America. Denmark cannot defend this territory from Russia or China, and why does it have a "ownership right" at all? There are no written documents, but it is known that their ship landed there hundreds of years ago, but we besides had ships there. I've done more for NATO than anyone else since its inception, and now NATO should do something for the United States. The planet will not be safe until we have complete and complete control of Greenland.

Thank you!

President DJT

In a fresh interview with "New York Times" Trump stated that it is "possible to decide" to win Greenland, even at the expense of the NATO alliance, and did not regulation out the annexation of the island by military force. This is crucial due to the fact that there is no real legal or political way to selling the territory to the United States, and Greenlandese themselves are powerfully opposed to leaving the Danish kingdom and transforming it into a territory associated with the US.
