I think Greenland should send law enforcement and have them demonstrate as much restraint and accountability as ICE agents do.
Time for some old-fashioned industrial sabotage in my view.
Gee it would be awful if someone blew that shit up
That site really needs to clean their posted URLs. Also linkify them…
Time to send in the police, confiscate the equipment, and take the workers away for questioning.
All the Europeans that keep telling us to “do something” about Trump wanna show us how it’s done?
Greenland is self governing when it comes to internal matters. Unless Trump sends in actual soldiers there’s not much that Denmark can do without violating Greenland’s self governance. Greenland just needs to send the police and stop them.
The funniest thing they can do is just be boring about. Fine the company then seize their equipment if they refuse to pay.
Can’t they just ask Denmark to do it then?
Pretty much every EU member is “self-governing”. And unless I misread and that’s a Greenland-based company this is an international matter.
It’s a Texas company named “Greenland Energy”.
The Guardian article that was the source had better coverage of what’s happening
Greenland is not a separate EU member though. It is part of the kingdom of Denmark, but was given self government by Denmark to make them stick around after the colonisation and not go independent.
All the Americans that kept telling us about their glorious 2nd amendment wanna show us how to deal with it?
Those are the ones who vote for Trump tho
He’s literally poking them and saying “punch me”
This is the US at fault, but um, Greenland, what are you guys doing there? Anything? This isn’t wartime invasion, nor economic warfare, but something in between. Trespassing and theft if any regular person was doing it.
This is absolutely an invasion. Just walking in & grabbing what they want because who’s gonna stop them?
Really fucking hope Greenland shows some force, here. Strong warnings & fines are just normal business.
Fun fact: Dr Phil’s fucking TV crew is covering these guys as a reality show.

*Propaganda.
They are filming propaganda. And if Greenland does what they should and physically seize the equipment and/or physically disabled it and restrict access to the location enforced through arrest Dr. Phil will try and twist that video as pretext for the USA to annex Greenland.
Did you really have to throw up in my mouth like that?
Can’t the local police just arrest them all for trespassing?
Yes, but usually spineless local politicians don’t want to cause an international incident, what is exactly what USA is counting on so they’ll salami slice more and more until there is a big blow-up with violence and things deteriorate from there.
Hopefully Greenland is less spineless.
I’d expect yes, but who’s to say local officials haven’t been bribed? Are Greenland officials immune to corruption?
They’re ignoring the toddler trying to escalate a war.
it’s also very very easy for greenland to let them invest all the money they want there and then just fly a drone up the tailpipe, over and over and over. It takes years to set this up and one night to burn it back down again.
I’m really glad to know that a “strong warning” was issued.
Do they not have some police or somebody who could go tell them “No” about that?
Rich people being told “no”
‘when your rich they let you do it’
So those were the alleged national security reasons… typical.
Humanity truly is fucked beyond rescue
Great, so Canada is next I guess.
Probably start with New Brunswick, Nova Scotia.
There will be bloodshed if that is the case.
There’s a line from fallout tv show. “Don’t think of them as humans, think of them as Americans.”
Haha right.
I’m guessing cuba
Denmark doesn’t have the ability to stop the US militarily from annexing Greenland, but the UN could not recognize it as belonging to the US and condemn it as an invasion.
US can’t even control some water.
I mean the UN doing something doesn’t really matter. The UN sending a strongly worded letter is a meme for a reason.
What does matter is that an invasion of Greenland would trigger NATO.
NATO would not be able to stop the US militarily since Greenland is near the US. However. it would be the end of NATO, something which Trump doesn’t really care about.
