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.
Germany and other European nations explored possible responses, including invoking NATO’s Article 5, though it was ruled out due to US veto power.
And this is the only reason why Trump didn’t pull the US out of NATO.
Because of the veto power, he can effectively block them from taking action against the United States.
NATO is dead.
If other world leaders had half a brain between them, they would be forming a new alliance without the United States as we speak.The new alliance already exists. It’s called the European Union.
The EU doesn’t include the UK, Canada, Norway, or Turkey. It isn’t really a good NATO substitute.
Yet
They could also kick out the United States.
They literally can’t, the US is a permanent member.
We’re seeing from the White House that written words, rules, and laws are meaningless to them. They’re only a permanent member because words say so, and the members are willing to honour those words. If the USA were to attack another NATO member I’m sure those words can and will be ignored.
They could reorganize as “NOT-U” under all the same terms but without the US.
There’s nothing stopping them from just ignoring the veto of the country they’re worried about…
Didn’t have “NATO deployed against America” on my bingo card. Plenty of other batshittery, but not that one.
I was curious what the plan was when nayo allies attack each other…apparently it’s fuck Nazis and trump regardless of the country’s status with nato
Please send troops to Canada! We can build the barracks to house them by the thousands to stop America from potentially annexing Canada. I wouldn’t put anything past that orange buffoon.
Hey NATO, you don’t have to send any troops. Just tell the Pentagon that you sent the Swedes and the Finns. When they say “Where? We don’t see anyone” Just respond"Exactly"
No you send them the ghost roadsigns of the Finnish winter and say “that direction”.
Probably NSFW, they’re dead Nazis and Russians.
Send them to Canada too pls.
Russia has the option to do the funniest thing ever.
