Word is that Denmark plans to increase defense spending on Greenland, following Trump’s statement that acquiring Greenland for the US is “an absolute necessity.” The Danes had better watch their backs, because Russians like Trump’s idea—they see Trump’s idea as an endorsement, in effect, of a multipolar world:
No timber large enough to build a ship from grew in Greenland, only small tundra type shrubs, driftwood isn't usually very good quality for construction either.
Early on, Greenlanders traded narwhal tusks, walrus ivory and hides for building timber & iron tools from Scandinavia. But North American timber was closer and the vikings were not stupid.
Greenland! We can't get anyone to willingly live in Alaska or North Dakota except the hardiest of Americans. I would be in favor of using Greenland as a migrant processing center though.
I wonder how Greenlanders feel about all this?
The EU and UK Governments need to be crushed and the people liberated.
Greenland would make an excellent location for the Departments of Education, Justice, Energy,......
LAVROV: DON’T HOLD YOUR BREATH FOR A QUICK END TO THE UKRAINE WAR
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov poured cold water on hopes of an easy resolution to the Ukraine crisis.
He mocked the idea that Trump’s return to power could magically fix things, saying Russia has “no illusions” about such a scenario.
Looks like Lavrov wants everyone to buckle up for the long haul.

Greenland would be an amazing penal colony, one way tickets for Tony, Bill, Klaus . . .
LOL! Check out the Wikipedia page. I couldn't see a single tree in any of the photos.

Deport all those third world invaders to Greenland. That would stop the invasion in it's tracks.
Now that, is some 4D Chess right there.
Ho. Ho. Ho.
An American hero.
Swampish to the max
