The top European Union military official, Robert Brieger, said it would make sense to station troops from EU countries in Greenland, according to an interview with Germany’s Welt am Sonntag published on Saturday, as U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed interest in acquiring the Danish territory.

    @albert180 military, yes. And if they turn to no longer be an ally, then we will have a lot of work in replacing them in this regard. Think of the Aegis Ashore system in Romania and Poland, for instance. Or the Ramstein Air Base in Germany. Or the countless defense contracts for Abrams tanks, F35s etc. and parts for them.

    Although it’s more of an autonomous territory/colony for it, it seems like Denmark is firmly determined to keep Greenland and not bow to the pressure, just like is France in helping it. I think their strategy is to turn everything into a lose-lose game, which doesn’t seem bad. Hope the orange dicktator will understand the message.
