France is working with partners on a plan over how to respond should the United States act on its threat to take over Greenland, Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said on Wednesday.

        Its a decision that should be left to the people of Greenland.

        What I don’t agree with is doing it at a time the country’s sovereignty is under direct threat. Trump has signaled he isn’t against boots on the ground, and the only thing holding him back from doing the same to Greenland, as what he has done to Venezuela, is the larger alliances they’re a part of.

        But you already know this; it’s why you’re advocating so fervently for their independence at a time when the US is drooling over them. I’m 100% convinced that your goal here is to sow discord to enable an unquestioned takeover of a newly independent and unprotected Greenland.

        Basically, your breath stinks of cheeto dick pal.

        Yes because whataboutism whilst the world’s strongest military is lapping it’s lips over taking the territory is such a strong argument.

        If Greenland were to gain independence now, they would forfeit their position in both NATO and the EU; and open the doors for an unquestioned American invasion… But sure, I’m the idiot here.

            Ah so give it all up and accept the new US overlords?

            I have to believe you’re acting in bad faith here, you cant genuinely be this stupid?

                More whataboutism, as expected. The EU and NATO aren’t colonial powers. Whereas the immediate threat of the US clearly is. Giving up the only military defense the country has would be a pro colonial move, given you’d essentially be surrendering the country to the States. But you’re clearly arguing in bad faith, creating this account today just to sow discord rather than provide anything even tangently meaningful to a conversation.
