Title: a 'decisive moment' in its feud with the US
Post by Brian Ross on Jan 12^th, 2026 at 2:15pm

Danish PM says her country faces a 'decisive moment' in its feud with the US over Greenland >:(

Excuse me, Brian, here on this board, we like Danish, thanks.

There is no way we would spinelessly suggest they should hand their territory over to the US.

Such a proposition would be a clear red line. We would never support a prez who threatened to take our ally's territory.

Always absolutely never ever.

Ms Frederiksen also posted on Facebook that "we are ready to defend our values — wherever it is necessary — also in the Arctic. We believe in international law and in peoples' right to self-determination."

The rapist in the White Supremacist House doesn't, though.

A simple yes or no will suffice.

Dear Karnal,

We have to go back to Yalta in 1945
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yalta_Conference

to see how the big boys carved up the world - all on their own,
they didn't consult anyone - they just did it.

Nothing has changed.
30,000 people in Greenland - a small town's worth -
don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.
The big boys decide.

You, Leroy, are too scared to say because you:

Yalta was an agreement to divide occupied territory, dearie.

Stalin and FDR went hard on Churchill to give up his occupation of Britain's colonies. Their successors spent the rest of the Cold War struggling for influence over those very colonies.

Britain did pull out. The US never wanted the hassle of colonies to begin with. Stalin and his successors never tried to annexe any territory for Russia, only political-economic influence. The USSR was a collection of socialist republics. Its satellites were independent socialist republics.

Your DL is making a pitch to nationalize Greenland. The US already has influence, a military base and the right to any mining rights US companies want to negotiate.

The principle of national sovereignty is so intrinsic to your values, you've spent the past decade defending it.

We decide who comes to our country and the manner in which they come, no?

57,000 eskimos are not going to decide whether China or Russia or the US or Denmark will control their island that is IN North America and of strategic significance to everyone but them.

Wake the **** up. It's a colony. European Nato and the EU are unreliable sell-outs.

1979, Greenland became a rigsdel (an autonomous territory) within the Kingdom of Denmark. King Donald is bigger.
King Xi is bigger again.

Greenland's are in a unique position, they have the opportunity to get a better deal than what they get from Denmark. They have the chance to forge a deal with America which will bring in capital and resources. Realistically they currently rely on America for security as Denmark has very limited capacity and relies on America anyway so its just cutting out the middle man.

So what it all means is if Russia attacks Greenland they have ring Denmark and then Denmark has to ring America and America chases Russia off. What is the purpose of Denmark.

Thats what it all comes too.

Greenlanders are happy with life and feel safe, they have no worries and love their independence, nothing wrong with that is there.

America provides the security that allows the Greenlanders to feel this way, they spend billions on bases in Greenland and the American taxpayer pays for it all.

What if Greenlanders have to deal with Putin themselves, what if they had to build up their military to be able to defend themselves, what if they had to pony up for the navy required for defending Greenland, would they be so happy and free.

Its not America's responsibility to ensure Russia don't acquire more real estate in Europe.

European countries can no longer rely on America to contain Russia, not because America dont want to but because Europe dont want to do the dirty work required to keep the likes of Putin contained.

Anyway America has every right to remind Greenland they need America more than America needs Greenland. Just like Greenlanders have the right to self determination Americans also have the right to self determination when it comes to who they protect and what they want in return for that protection.

America has every right to say to Europe if you want our protection this is what it will cost you, Europe then have the right to reject or accept the offer. This is what Trump is saying, why do the taxpayers of America have to pay for Europe's protection.

'Mr Trump said Greenland was vital to America's national security and that "without the vast power of the United States … NATO would not be an effective force or deterrent" to Russia and China.'

It's expected that when Putin invades, he will be offered all the parts he hasn't yet seized and the Kingdom of Denmark. This will be joined to Ukraine and form a corridor to Moscow for mineral transport from Greenland.
