It would be a delicious geopolitical thumb of the nose if Greenland low key arranged a big meeting of all the deputy prime ministers in the EU (perhaps leading out Hungary and Slovakia, since they’re being dicks)

The Europeans are such vassals to Trump that this token act is seen as a sign of defiance. How about stationing European troops and kicking out the US base there?

Something tells me the current US administration is crazy enough to refuse an eviction. And if they were to do that denmark has 0 ability to forcefully remove the US and would effectively be ceding sovereignty of the bases in operation there if not all of Greenland.
