Vance: “If that means that we need to take more territorial interest in Greenland, that is what President Trump is going to do because he doesn't care about what the Europeans scream at us,”

“Denmark is a bad ally”

So, no matter what you voted, this is your country threatening your former ally. We are a small nation, and god knows why - I have been against it most of the time - we have been an ally, danish people have died in service as an allied country. I am not seeing you flow into the streets protesting this new dictator you somehow got elected? What are you going to do? Still half joking about moving to Canada?

@luhmann Denmark colonize Greenland for more than 400 years. Its population is less than 60K. All of a sudden you guys are worrying about its FREEDOM!

@worldcitizen1 @luhmann do you even realize that the first Greenland inhabitants were likely Danish? That land was without humans when the vikings landed on its shores.

@worldcitizen1 Suddenly? Well in 1979 was the first step of Independence, the second in 2009, and at this point Greenland would have the support of becoming 100% independent. And yes, Denmark has not treated Greenland well, at all, and aren’t still, but we actually work on it, and really do want Greenlands independence, neither of which can be said about the US. Furthermore, this is also about how the US threatens with force and punishment to take over a part of the world, that isn’t interested, who have clearly said no thank you to becoming Americans but who do wants to work with the US. Where I would tell the US to get fucked.
