France is in talk to deploy troops to Greenland to defend against an American invasion. Denmark is considering the idea if Trump continues on his quest to take the island. This comes after the EU’s military committee floated the possibility of deploying EU troops to the island. France says that the US won’t invade Greenland because no American wants to enter into a war with the European Union — But added that if Denmark requests solidarity, it will stand ready to respond. Last week Trump shouted at the Danish Premier on the phone, demanding that Denmark give up Greenland after she offered him military bases and mineral rights. He also said that it would be an extremely unfriendly act of Denmark to refuse to give up Greenland. We saw Putin do something similar leading up to the invasion of Ukraine. The idea of war between the US and Europe is undeniably uncomfortable and unfathomable for people on both sides of the pond. But the idea is on everyone’s mind as Trump keeps pushing to take an island that the US already controls.
