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 support the American purchase of Greenland.

      It’ll be nice to have the option to settle or visit there without having to go through customs.

          That guy’s account is 8 hours old. Everyone I’ve seen sucking orange nazi cock lately has been using new accounts. Very well could be bots or a troll farm.

            Well a question like this wouldn’t be more absurd than most ESTA-Questions?

              I traveled to Europe for the first time only a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to enter (as an American). The customs officer at Frankfurt didn’t utter a single word to me, just checked my passport and waved me through. Guess I’m too used to American government processes and institutions where efficiency and convenience are low priority for the end user.

                The difference between security and security theater.

                Americans only do theater. They do actual security in Europe
