  1. From Bloomberg’s Natalia Drozdiak and Joe Deaux:

    The US wants to rewrite its defense agreement with Denmark to remove any limits on its military presence in Greenland, people familiar with the matter said, in what’s become a focal point for negotiators looking to meet President Donald Trump’s demand for control over the territory.

    The original agreement, signed in 1951 and amended in 2004, says the US must “consult with and inform” Denmark and Greenland before it makes “any significant changes to United States military operations or facilities in Greenland.”

    The people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations, said American negotiators want to rework that language to make sure the US faces no restrictions at all as it makes its plans. The details of any such agreement are still being negotiated, they said.

    Anna Kelly, a White House spokeswoman, said that “if this deal goes through, and President Trump is very hopeful it will, the United States will be achieving all of its strategic goals with respect to Greenland, at very little cost, forever.”

    Just grifting to the base more lies.

    Articles like this pander to his base but also continue to completely torch any goodwill America has ever had.

    Like do yall not realize threatening to take an ally is not a good look?

    This reminds me of Boxer Protocol, in which the Qing Dynasty had to allow foreign powers (actually 8 countries) to permanently station troops in several Chinese cities.

    Of course this is different, but what kind of country that can’t even dictate the terms of their own lands ? At least the Chinese put up a fight.

    Uhm, they already had that.

    Not once have Denmark said no to the US raising its presence.

    Hell, despite having nuclear weapons stationed on Danish territory is illegal, we still allowed the US to do so during the Cold War…
