Her gennemgår @marcjacobsen.bsky.social og jeg fire scenarier for en amerikansk overtagelse eller kontrol med Grønland og vurderer deres sandsynlighed.
1) Køb
2) Aftale om fri associering
3) De Facto-kontrol (genforhandling af eksisterende aftaler)
4) Militær magt

Two hard realities persist: The US won't risk war with Russia over Ukraine, and Europeans won't act without the US. This makes any security guarantee fundamentally less credible, regardless of Paris talk details.

After the Cold War, the US itself closed or sharply downsized many military facilities in Greenland, including Sondrestrom Air Base and early-warning radar sites. Denmark remained a loyal ally, and did not object to US presence. Claims of Danish security neglect are fallacious.

It's just a very odd newscycle when Europeans are working alongside America to offer security guarantees in Ukraine while also wondering if America is going to invade Greenland. The whole thing makes no sense.

True European solidarity with Greenland and Denmark would mean a joint military presence, not just letters of support. The U.S. would still win if push came to shove, but the whole idea would be far more unpalatable to the American public. It will never happen, of course. But one can dream.

Few thoughts on the Greenland saga, summarized in a short thread. Some of these points have already sparked debate on X, but after Miller’s speech, I am even more convinced. 🧵Thread
1/ First and foremost, Denmark is not only a member of the EU, but also a founding member of NATO.

That said. Denmark should send forces there and us Nordic allies should join them. In this world it's either stand together or be ruled by dictators. Even if they get ordered to stand down and surrender when the fighting starts it shows that we will not be divided.

Maybe the greatest example of the bizarro world in which we now live is that European states are maintaining the dangerous fiction that the US would fight for them, when the more likely use of US military force would be to kick Europe out of Greenland.

The fact that European states would simply roll over and accept a US seizure of Greenland (and they would), shows how little they have adjusted to the new world.
