Summary
NATO allies informally discussed deploying troops to Greenland after Trump threatened military action to seize the Danish territory.
Germany and other European nations explored possible responses, including invoking NATO’s Article 5, though it was ruled out due to US veto power.
Denmark pledged $1.5 billion to bolster Arctic security, while NATO considered expanding its presence.
Trump cites strategic concerns over Russian and Chinese influence and US missile defense. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte acknowledged Arctic security needs but sought to defuse tensions.
Canada should just import their army from the US, plenty of us would be willing to fight.
Foreign legion of Canada?
That will do so much damage just like it’s going in Ukraine.
Better the foreign legion dies than a Canadian, eh?
Why would you want a voluntary group willing to fight for Canada to die?
Do you understand what the foreign legion of Ukraine does?
If I was fighting for Canada, who would I be killing?
Don’t know. That would be up to your chain of command.
Sounds like a pretty easy gig if you don’t know who we would be fighting.
