Trump Demands Greenland Talks, Warns Europe at Davos

Trump Demands Greenland Talks, Warns Europe at Davos

The Spin

Davos elites finally waking up to reality — Trump's right that America needs Greenland to block China and Russia from dominating the Arctic. NATO's own chief admits Trump forced Europe to step up on defense spending, and without American leadership pushing for strategic control of critical chokepoints like the GIUK Gap, Western security crumbles. The rare earth minerals and geographic position aren't luxuries; they're necessities for defending against authoritarian expansion northward.

Trump's Greenland obsession exposes dangerous imperial ambitions that threaten the entire transatlantic alliance. Macron correctly warned against this new colonialism, while Canada's Carney laid out how middle powers must unite against American bullying and coercion. The rules-based order that prevented great power conflicts for decades is being shredded by threats against NATO allies. Sovereignty and territorial integrity matter — 57,000 Greenlanders deserve self-determination, not annexation by force disguised as real estate deals.
