JD Vance on Thursday accused Denmark — a fellow NATO member — and the rest of Europe of failing to protect Greenland from the intentions of Russia and China.
“I guess my advice to European leaders and anybody else would be to take the president of the United States seriously,” Vance told journalists at the White House when asked about Greenland.
After the US military successfully captured Venezuela’s leader Nicolas Maduro last weekend, Donald Trump renewed his push to acquire Greenland, with the use of military force not out of the question.
Vance especially urged Europe to respond to Trump’s insistence that the United States needs the island for “missile defense.”
Literally the reason they got Maduro is no one thought they’d be stupid enough to try this.
Because the fact is, military crossing borders accidentally is pretty common, now when US troops do it, they’re getting capped because they’re a credible threat, even if an ally.
“Accidentally,” yes. Actually accidentally, very rare. One thing the military knows very well is where their assets are.
The only reason they got Maduro is that the Venezuelan army is riddled with traitors and Maduro’s nr3 deserted few years ago and is now in the US betraying his country for money and using his pull to give the US contacts. Worse, they murdered 80 people in cold blood, of which civilians. The whole operation is anything but impressive.
