"Trump’s admission that he recognises no constraint outside his own morality was a horrifying moment of truth. It should galvanise all those who oppose him. ...
Trump’s desire for Greenland was once dismissed as a punchline, but after Venezuela no one is laughing. Now we know that Trump’s words are the best guide to his future actions: if he says he wants something, he may well take it."

"Trump told the New York Times that the U.S. may have to choose between seizing Greenland and preserving NATO, arguing that outright ownership matters more than treaties or international law, remarks that prompted warnings from Denmark and other European leaders that any U.S. attack on Greenland would effectively end the alliance and deepen transatlantic tensions."

"By now, it is clear that Donald Trump is determined to either buy or take Greenland by force. The question is, what can be done to stop him. The answer is that NATO is the sole bulwark against this insane project."

"What these assaults, domestic and foreign, have in common is the drive for power, free of challenge or restraint. South American countries are to submit, as are Democrat-run cities and states. Whether it’s sending special forces to Caracas or ordering the National Guard into Los Angeles and Washington DC, the goal is control."

"[Trump's statement that international law does not constrain him] is an honest account by Trump of how he sees himself: not so much a national president as a global emperor. Now those who oppose him have to be just as honest. Trump may be right that the US arsenal is such that no country can stand up to him, and certainly not alone. But the major European powers, and others, do have leverage, especially if they act in concert."

"What Trump is threatening is not a small diplomatic dispute. It is a direct assault on NATO, on the rule of law, and on the bedrock alliances that have kept global stability intact for decades. It is a threat of war. Of invasion. Denmark and Greenland are not shrugging this off. Europe is furious. And they should be."
