Det här är Europas Neville Chamberlain-ögonblick

USA förbereder av allt att döma ett angrepp mot oss och visar nu att de struntar i andra staters suveränitet

EU måste ta sig samman. Igår.

The reason is simple: We don't have 2000 soldiers.
European countries need to not only acknowledge the fact that U.S. is no longer an ally, but also the urgent need for rearmament.
Denmark's gov & EU continues to be in complete denial over the threat from US.
They still think #appeasement is a strategy. Its not. Its #copium
and criminally neglect of duty.

Venezuela is being robbed of its oil, while EUr&DK clapped.

Why has DK not sent say 2000 soldiers to Nuuk already?

Europe, don't say you weren't warned.

”EU president von der Leyen… ”supports a peaceful and democratic transition” and “any solution must respect international law and the UN Charter”. Absurd, considering that the strike and kidnapping clearly violates international law and the UN Charter”

A day that will live in infamy
The US has today bombed and invaded a sovereign country to execute regime change. European leaders are too terrified of Trump to condemn it. Will they react the same if the US invades Greenland?

"It is completely unacceptable that the USA appoints an ambassador to Greenland who says that his task is to make Greenland a part of the USA. Greenland's future will be decided by the Greenlanders. We demand that the USA respect the Denmark's territorial integrity."

I‘m getting tired of repeating the point that Trump wants to divide and rule. He poses a collective action problem for Europeans and as long as we leave targeted nations to fend for themselves, he will succeed in dominating us.

Greenland is an autonomous territory in the Kingdom of Denmark. Any changes to that status are for Greenlanders and Danes alone to decide. (1/2)

In a joint statement, the prime ministers of Greenland and Denmark urged the US to show respect, saying annexation is not an option.

Denmark’s Mette Frederiksen and Greenland’s Jens Frederik Nielsen stressed that Greenland belongs to its people, not the United States.

“The United States of America had boats in Greenland in 1725,” said President Goodbrain
Trump: We need Greenland for national protection. They have a very small population. They say Denmark, but Denmark has no military protection. They say that Denmark was there 300 years ago with a boat—well, we were there with boats too I’m sure.

Last night's failure to agree on giving Russia's frozen assets to Ukraine was a bad look for the EU. But the Plan B that they came up with, #EurobondsForUkraine, could actually be better because:

1. Money arrives faster
2. It's legally unquestionable
3. It can be done again
EU's Plan B could see money going to Ukraine faster than Plan A

Exactly, take the win!
The EU never gets praise even when it acts. There is so much constant EU negging that commentators struggle to praise when it delivers. The EU did what it needed to do. Take the win.

Last night was a big step for Ukraine and the European project.

It's an attempt to differentiate the centre left from the continued Atlanticism of the centre right EPP.

But the centre-left is almost completely out of power in the EU, with just 3 PM seats in 27-seat 🇪🇺Council.

The combined hard-and-far right (ECR/PfE) has 4 seats. The long-dominant EPP has 10.

"Europe’s future must be shaped by Europeans, and this vision is fundamentally incompatible with attempts by the Trump administration to weaken, divide or dictate Europe’s path," says centre-left group president (and former Swedish prime minister) Stefen Löfven.
