Summary

A YouGov poll found that 46% of Danes view the US as a major threat, surpassing concerns about North Korea and Iran but trailing Russia (86%).

Additionally, 78% oppose selling Greenland to the US, though 72% believe Greenland should decide its own fate.

The poll follows heightened tensions over Trump’s repeated claims that acquiring Greenland is an “absolute necessity” for US economic security.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has sought European unity in response, warning of shifting relations with the US.

    American here, I think we should bring back expansionism and the world would be a better place if Canada, Mexico, and Greenland were all part of the US.

      Fuck off, that attitude is the reason at least half the world hates your country and Americans

      Also as a Canadian, I’d die fighting before I became American

      Get to fuck with your neo-imperialist attitudes.

      I hope you suffer under Trump, if this is really how you think.

        Hey man, when your nation is as appealing to the rest of the world as the US is (when you have countless migrants desperate to move there), then you can take that attitude.

        Until then, we’re just giving the people what they want. More America.

        You never see immigrants clamoring to move to Greenland, and there’s a good reason for that.

      American here.

      I think Canada or Mexico should carve up the us and make it part of them. I also think they should leave the welfare states in the south to fend for themselves as the remainder of the us
