[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s because Ukraine is about more than Ukraine. It’s about a larger strategy/outcome. You would think that should include the EU, but Trump doesn’t currently see them as his equal. However, France is trying to coordinate an EU perspective. [b]Trump, Putin, and Xi want to carve up the world into power blocs. So, if Trump acquiesces to Russia on Ukraine, what will Russia help the US get? Maybe Greenland.[/b] [/quote]

This is the answer. [/quote]

But why cut Russia in on that? Russia is not a world power. Why would Russia have any say over Greenland? The closest Russian territory to Greenland is farther away than New York is from Los Angeles.

Greenland will be covered in ice for 500 years. The arctic will not be ice free year round for 75-100 years. You would need 50 nuclear powered icebreakers to maintain an open channel during winter. No one has that.

Just because Trump mumbles something about Greenland does not mean it actually makes sense. Just like surrendering to the Russian in Ukraine. [/quote]
