Nah. I wish, but until now Europeans have shown no backbone at all against Trump. When the USA take Greenland, the Danish and Greenlanders are gonna be alone, because that's what happens between NATO members in conflict. The USA, of course, designed it like that.

A UK general said it best. If the US invades Greenland, NATO will naturally dissolve, because it is solely based on trust. Break that trust and it's over.

I bet NATO would have defended Greece against Turkey, but that’s different. Somehow.
