    Yeah, so regardless if the US actually does it or not, if I was Denmark and Canada, I would be investing heavily in defending territories marked by Putin.

    It’s so weird that Putin would communicate his plan with Trump, but at least he did it and the rest of the world can predict what he will do next.

    If Putin gains control of Canada and Greenland, the Artic becomes his “Panama Canal.”

    Ukraine gives him more control over the black sea.

    He’s trying to take control of trade routes.

      It’s actually worse than that:

      With Trump+Musk smashing Canada & Greenland,

      THEN Trump & Putin can DESTROY the hated-by-them EU, & butcher ALL of Europe,

      making them the exclusive “kings” of the still-functioning world.

      It isn’t subjugation they want, it is destruction.
