Vice President JD Vance traveled to Greenland to promote President Donald Trumpās claim that America has to have the Danish territoryāand that Greenlanders would be more secure under U.S. protection.President Trump āhas repeatedly suggested the U.S. should take over Greenland āone way or the another...
Itās still a blatant attack on their sovereignty, whether you want to call it an āact of war,ā or not. Denmark should be, at the very least, shoring up defenses. I would believe Trump when he says he needs to do this.
Denmark is currently investing heavily in seamines, ships to handle the seamines and underwater surveillance. Unfortunately I fear itās too little too late, but only time will tell I suppose.
No matter what, the best bet is to make the invasion so costly it wonāt be worth it for the US.
My only (possibly last?) hope is that, if he begins some kind of invasion, that itās over whatever line that our military leaders have drawn in the sand in terms of obeying unlawful orders, and they refuse.
Iām not optimistic.
