European Troops Arrive in Greenland

NUUK, Greenland (AP) " Troops from several European countries continued to arrive in Greenland on Thursday in a show of support for Denmark as talks among representatives of Denmark, Greenland and the U.S. highlighted "fundamental disagreement" over the future of the Arctic island.

Comments

"The troop movements were intended to portray unity among Europeans and send a signal to President Donald Trump that an American takeover of Greenland is not necessary as NATO together can safeguard the security of the Arctic region amid rising Russian and Chinese interest.

The European troops did little to dissuade Trump.

Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen welcomed the continuation of "dialogue and diplomacy."

"Greenland is not for sale," he said Thursday. "Greenland does not want to be owned by the United States. Greenland does not want to be governed from the United States. Greenland does not want to be part of the United States."

'['

"Maya Martinsen, 21, said it was "comforting to know that the Nordic countries are sending reinforcements" because Greenland is a part of Denmark and NATO.

The dispute, she said, is not about "national security" but rather about "the oils and minerals that we have that are untouched."

History, if we have any, will prolly be stupified by these Gangster Take-Over Attempts.
