After Trump's comment, if I was the Greenland PM, I would order Pituffik Space Base closed immediately. It's not safe to keep US military personnel on Greenland soil anymore.

I'm not fully sure the PM of Greenland even gets to decide on something like that as it is an autonomous region of Denmark, while autonomous it is still a colonial region of a European country that is in NATO, Trump annexing them would only hurt their people, but don't be mistaken it is not a sovereign country currently, most of it's diplomatic relations take place in Copenhagen
That was my first thought. But that is just what putin wants, and probably why he told the useful idiot to say this.
He’s already doing what putin wants, driving the US and NATO countries apart
Death to NATO. Its an objectively good thing for humanity. I don't care if your boogey man also wants it, its a good thing
I'd prefer not to be at war with Russia, thanks
Too late
Just bc you aren't on the battle field doesn't mean you aren't at war with Russia. The US and NATO are just using Ukrainians to fight their war
If you're in the US, you already are lol
But I'm not sure what that has to do with the fact that NATO should be dissolved
I like that you're sharing your opinion. I just want more information about it, so I can either agree or disagree. What about dissolving NATO would be "Good for humanity"?
I'm not in the US
It has to do with the fact that my country exists because NATO protects it. Russia violates our airspace regularly.
Which country is that
my country exists because NATO protects it.
Then "your country" shouldn't exist. Its just a US vassal at that point anyway
Greenland was getting this anyway. Clickbait headline tying it to Trump.
oh thanks
