US takeover of Greenland could mean ‘end of NATO as we know it’, expert warns • FRANCE 24

Large crowds gathered in Copenhagen to protest US President Donald Trump’s push to take over Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory. As both Denmark and the United States are members of the NATO alliance, any US aggression against another member state raises profound questions about the bloc’s future. If the United States were to invade Greenland, “this would essentially mean the end of NATO as we know it,” said Guntram Wolff, a senior fellow at Bruegel.

US-Europe standoff on Greenland 'a big win for Putin': Danish parliament defence chair • FRANCE 24

For US President Donald Trump, mocking a country or a leader is not just a reality TV-style soundbite; it is an early warning sign of military action.

Europe does appear to be taking this latest threat seriously. But can European countries actually stop Trump from taking over Greenland? And how do they navigate this cr...
