If they were interested in defending Greenland they would base support troops there so any American action would require direct engagement with EU military personnel.
I agree. But that would also trigger Trump into action, so they may be hoping diplomacy will still hold out, futile as that may be. Hopefully they’re building a joint task force in the meantime.
Yeah. It seems part of why he pulled the trigger on Mudaro is that Mudaro was dancing in a mocking fashion while Trump was trying to put the pressure on. He overreacted and sent in delta force with no plan for what to do after they got him… The US is likely putting a bunch of options in front of him at all times as they would any president, but he just gets pissed off and picks an option while he’s angry and sundowning rather than considering what’s strategically best for literally anyone else, not to mention feeling desperate as his power diminishes into lame duck territory. It’s starting to seem more and more like he’s bored of the game and just picking the most cataclysmic options, because he’s demented, so the whole fucking world has to walk on egg shells around the shit-pants fucker. He is probably also being encouraged to pick bad options by bad people that he trusts like the fucking moron he is, like Putin, so he’s always teetering in a shitty direction.

You think he still requires triggers?

The US military would see that coming before they even left European ports.
Yeah, that is the entire fucking point of doing it.
There are a bunch of non-US units on the US base already.
