Live updates: Senate advances resolution to limit Trump’s ability to attack Venezuela

U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on Wednesday that Denmark “obviously” had not done a proper job in securing Greenland and that Trump “is willing to go as far as he has to” to defend American interests in the Arctic.

Another option would be to make a deal on #Greenland — a sale or lease, with expanded access to #mineral rights, & #US role in #security. In the event of a crisis, “the rest of #Europe will lean on #Denmark to make some kind of arrangement with the #US,” Rahman said.

But the mere prospect of such conflict only highlights how much more difficult it is now for #US #allies to toe the line with #Trump. That, too, could lead to a drastic deterioration of the transatlantic #alliance if not its end, analysts say.

“Many European countries are still seeking to ride both a European and an American horse,” Rahman said. “That may become impossible.”

Whether its gaming or grasping, European leaders face unpalatable choices. One is to stick with the unified hard line that emerged in recent days, making clear that any move on #Greenland could trigger a response by European #allies — not against #Russia or #China but, unthinkably, against the #UnitedStates.

Invoking the #NATO treaties collective defense clause, known as #Article5, under which an attack on one member is regarded as an attack on all, requires the #unanimity of all 32 #allies. The #US, of course, would reject any plea for help by #Denmark — effectively neutering the #treaty.
“Article 5 did not anticipate that the invading country would be a member of NATO,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) told reporters asking about bill in #Congress to prohibit #Trump for acting in #Greenland.

Hurlburt cited a retired #US general who viewed the #Trump White House move in #Venezuela & its fixation on #Greenland as reminiscent of teenagers playing the geostrategic board game Risk.
“Once you start down the road of the #MonroeDoctrine or the #DonroeDoctrine, or whatever we’re saying now, you look at a map of the #WesternHemisphere, & there is Greenland,” she said.

“Nobody’s going to fight the #UnitedStates militarily over the future of Greenland,” #StephenMiller said.

Miller’s wife posted an image of the American flag superimposed on a map of #Greenland with the caption “SOON.”
“It’s clear that some people in & adjacent to the administration felt empowered by the success of the operation,” said Heather Hurlburt, an associate fellow in the Americas Program at Chatham House, the London-based think tank.

#NATO has survived clashing #allies before. Greece & Turkey, notably, have been in a standoff since Turkish forces occupied northern Cyprus in 1974. But, as Rahman noted, the #US, NATO’s wealthiest & most powerful member, was instrumental in mediating that rift.
“Now it is causing it,” he said. “NATO can’t survive a forceful #annexation. The #alliance would be meaningless even if it continues to exist on paper.”

#Europe draws red line on #Greenland after a year of futilely trying to pacify #Trump
While many European leaders’ reactions to the #Venezuela raid were muted, there have been forceful rebukes about the Trump admin’s greediness on Greenland.

@Nonilex

Let me very blunt here:

I have absolutely *no* sympathy for Europe, the EU, or NATO

Trump has been on the International stage for 15-20 years?

Trump should be a known quantity:

he is a profoundly disturbed, acute narcissist *and* a serial, pathological liar

Trump's BFFs are Putin and the kleptocrats of Saudi Arabia and the rest of the Middle East

This should be nothing new to any adult European leader

Instead they've been playing footsy with Trump, trying to pretend that if they just let him have his way a little, he'll go away and leave them alone

Didn't work, and Europe has no Plan B

Time to face the reality you've all helped create

A day later Speaker of the #House #MikeJohnson downplayed the likelihood of force.
“The #US always has #military options for everything,” Johnson told reporters Wednesday. “I think with #Greenland it’s very clear that we are working through diplomatic channels.”

#Europe had been riding out #Trump’s shocks, betting there would be limits. To many, those bets now look much riskier.

The PM of #Denmark, a #NATO member, said a #US action on #Greenland, a territory of the kingdom of Denmark for >300 years, would be the end of the #alliance. Leaders of #France, #Germany, #Italy, #Poland, #Spain & #Britain closed ranks with Copenhagen, issuing a joint statement that Greenland’s future is a matter for “Denmark & Greenland, & them only.”
