Q: The premier of Greenland said today, 'We prefer to stay with Denmark.'

TRUMP: Who said that?

Q: The premier of Greenland

TRUMP: Well, that's their problem. I disagree with him. I don't know who he is. Don't know anything about him. But that's gonna be a big problem for him.

Will Carney defend Greenland?

Greenland is a NATO member via Denmark.

I suspect we'll do our duty as part of a NATO response.

Article 5, but what does NATO do when the call is coming from inside the house?

Do we really consider people starting infights as NATO members? There may not be anything written on paper but it feels like the answer should be obvious.

[–] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Because Article 5 requires unanimous agreement from all members to be invoked, a conflict between two members would lead to an impasse, as the alliance cannot vote to go to war against itself.

The only time Article 5 has been invoked was following the September 11, 2001, attacks in the US.

So, obviously members are probably scrambling to work something out, but it might be the end of NATO and the start of something else. NATO without the Yanks, but with blackjack and hookers
