Medvedev hints that Trump may not live to see the end of his term if he tries to dismantle NATO.
The pointless spectacle in Davos promises to be entertaining. Instead of the worn-out topic of a dying Ukraine, they’ll be discussing a frozen Greenland. ❄️
The general layout is clear enough. Timid European cockerels, stuffed with tranquilizers out of fear, will try to persuade the pushy uncle to take full control of the island — while keeping it formally under the ownership of the Danish kingdom. Do whatever you want, uncle: take the island for indefinite free use, extract minerals at no cost, build military bases, airfields, missile silos, and any other facilities needed for total control.
But that’s not what Trump wants. Everyone understands this. He wants to paint the island on world maps in stars-and-stripes colors (he’s already published such a map, including Canada and Venezuela) and stand alongside the Founding Fathers. He wants to remain in history forever. And, at the same time, to become like the President of Russia.
That last part is impossible. During the special military operation and as a result of referendums, Russia reclaimed its own lands — territories that had been part of it for centuries, together with their people. Greenland is something entirely different. It has never been directly connected to the United States, despite several past attempts to buy it.
The key question is the price the current occupant of the White House is willing to pay to achieve this goal. Dismantling NATO is not the same as abducting a foreign leader betrayed by his allies in a weakened country. And finally — will Trump even be allowed to do it? 🕰️
