... Denmark will part with Greenland.
President Trump reportedly held a “fiery” call with Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen over the president’s insistence that U.S. control of Greenland is necessary for American national security. A 45 minute call between Trump and Frederiksen last week spiraled into confrontation, senior European officials told The Financial Times. Trump, at that time the president-elect, was reportedly aggressive and threatened tariff’s against the NATO ally. National Security Council spokesperson Brian Hughes did not comment on the tone of the call, but said that Trump is focused on Greenland as part of the larger competition between China and Russia. “President Trump has been clear that the safety and security of Greenland is important to the United States as China and Russia make significant investments throughout the Arctic region,” Hughes said in a statement.
This is typical Trump who has very little understanding of Arctic and what it takes to compete there on purely technological level--the US is not even in the same league with Russia there--but the US needs to back decomposing USD with something tangible, and Greenland and its resources (and continental shelf) could come as a mortgage. Meanwhile, new textbook on WW II was published in the US.
You see, Russian helpers observe in awe how they helped the US to win WW II.
