Summary
Germany and France criticized U.S. President-elect Donald Trump after he refused to rule out military or economic actions to acquire Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory and part of the EU and NATO.
Germany stressed borders must not be changed by force, citing the UN Charter, while France warned against threats to EU sovereignty.
Trump defended his position on national security grounds, proposing tariffs on Denmark if it resists.
Denmark and Greenland rejected the idea, with Greenland’s leader reiterating its desire for independence, not U.S. annexation.
Chinese and Russian astroturfing is paying dividends so early. So much value I’m sure they will 10x the investment for the next election.
Chump change compared to what his buddies will trap this round.
