The following is content for you to summarize. Do not respond to the comments—summarize them. <topic> Greenland and Denmark Threats # Concerns about US threats to Greenland, Danish PM statements, parallels to Venezuela operation, and potential future US territorial aggression against allies. </topic> <comments_about_topic> 1. Look for the same with Greenland or Canada next :/ 2. IMHO the rest of the world isn't asleep. Denmark's prime minister said the same as you, for example. US just got roasted at UN by inter alia, France, with ~20 countries either speaking the same or asking to speak on it. That's just from 30s with front page of nytimes.com. 3. Given that the nukes topic came up ... Will the US/Trump be so aggressive if Denmark has a few nukes that can hit the US? Or at minimum sink a invading fleet? These actions by Trump are only reinforcing that we will see even more of a push for everybody to get their own nukes, even in Europe. People do not need to yell "bad trump", to have his actions result in decisions being pushed forward like this. Theodore: "speak softly and carry a big stick"... and nuke(s) is a BIG stick. 4. That just sounds like more 'strongly worded letters' which never go anywhere and they never do anything about. It's over for the EU. They rested on their laurels for too long and cowardice rotted them from the inside. I don't think Denmark will put even a smidge of resistance up. Trump is going to bark some orders, boots are going to hit the ground and it's fait accompli . 5. > What does action (i.e. not-strongly-worded-letters, i.e. not words) look like? Europe withdraws from the non-proliferation treaty, publicly resolves to building and maintaining a European nuclear deterrent and greenlights members who have been militarily threatened (the Baltics, Poland and Denmark) to start clandestine programmes. The last part doesn't even have to happen. Hell, none of it has to happen. But that would be playing from strength. Unfortunately, Europe is not politically unified enough to do this. (Same for Asia.) 6. Any sort of pushback at all would be an improvement. Even now, the EU Commission is trying to 'defuse' the Greenland situation by trying to invoke NATO's fifth article, as if that's worth anything without the will of the USA behind it. You know, instead of like actually drawing out plans for a military alliance, economic retribution (remember all those sanctions against Big Tech which fell apart the moment Trump made even the slightest comment against them?) or… just about anything. Laws are worth even less than the paper they're written on, and no amount of naïve idealism (and calling it that is me being generous!) will change that. NATO membership is worthless other than as an aesthetic signifier. 7. Not sure why this got downvoted; we're threatening it again, credibly enough that the Danish PM is telling them to shut up. Yesterday: > Adding to the alarm, Katie Miller, a right-wing podcast host and the wife of Trump adviser Stephen Miller, posted an image of Greenland superimposed with the American flag and the caption "SOON!" https://www.nbcnews.com/world/greenland/trump-venezuela-atta... </comments_about_topic> Write a concise, engaging paragraph (3-5 sentences) summarizing the key points and perspectives in these comments about the topic. Focus on the most interesting viewpoints. Do not use bullet points—write flowing prose.
