@Nonilex By say, holding multination "exercises" in Greenland? I think Europe no longer trusts Trump, is going to plant a force there to hedge against him getting grabby and Trump is going to claim it as a win and that they're not there to defend against HIM.
#Rutte said in an interview on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum [ #WEF] meeting in Davos, Switzerland that it was now up to #NATO commanders to work through the details of extra #security requirements & that he was sure non-Arctic NATO allies would want to contribute to the effort.
"We will come together in NATO with our senior commanders to work out what is necessary," Rutte said. "I have no doubt we can do this quite fast. Certainly I would hope for 2026, I hope even early in 2026."

@Nonilex Trump's backers may have overplayed their hand on Greenland, alerting the EU they need to pay even more attention there.
#Rutte also said the intensified #Arctic effort would not drain resources in support of #Ukraine.
Asked if #NATO #allies can take #Trump at his word, Rutte responded: "You can always take Donald Trump at his word".
Trump on Wednesday said the US would not use force to pursue his ambition to acquire #Greenland & later dropped the threat of additional #tariffs against some of Washington's European allies & fellow NATO members over the issue.
@Nonilex
Rutte took the koolaid ?
"Asked if #NATO #allies can take #Trump at his word, #Rutte responded:
"You can always take Donald Trump at his word"."
Let me be very, very blunt here
NATO #SecretaryGeneral #MarkRutte is a complete and utter, f*cking fool
Period
Full stop
@Nonilex as a European I have no high regard for Rutte whatsoever.
@Nonilex did he have his fingers crossed when he said that about always taking trump at his word?
"You can always take Donald Trump at his word".
Rutte knows that this is BS. But he's keeping up appearances. Perhaps this is the only way to come to results?

Anyone else want to have a long laughing fit today?
@FediThing @Nonilex exactly, I prefer Carney's statement.
