France Will Deploy Troops To Greenland To Protect Against U.S (Photos) by WriterNig(op): 7:30pm On Jan 28, 2025

🇫🇷 France is considering deploying troops to 🇬🇱 Greenland in response to 🇺🇸 US President Donald Trump’s controversial remarks about acquiring the Arctic island, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said Tuesday.

Barrot confirmed that France discussed the issue with Denmark but stressed there are no immediate plans for action.

“At this point, it is not Denmark’s wish,” Barrot said in an interview with Sud Radio, adding that Europe would act if security interests were threatened.

The comments come as Denmark seeks European support to counter Trump’s growing interest in Greenland. Trump has cited the island’s natural resources and strategic value, stating, “I think we’re going to have it.”

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has been meeting with European leaders to discuss the matter and dismissed any immediate military threats to Greenland. She emphasized the importance of transatlantic cooperation.

Barrot described the Arctic region as “a new field of conflict,” and Frederiksen signaled a cautious approach, avoiding an escalation of tensions.

Denmark recently announced a €2 billion investment in Arctic defense.

Nigeria-concerned, as the FG is going about its usual businesses, it should also remember that Congo is in turmoil and Congolese people are caught in chaos and are dying.

It seems like Trump is attempting to isolate the U.S. from the rest of the world.

France can't try it. Different headline, different body.

France is considering. Never said will.
Re: France Will Deploy Troops To Greenland To Protect Against U.S (Photos) by Dbegining: 7:56pm On Jan 28, 2025
This headline is misleading. What the headline says is different from the content of the news.

🤦🤦

Secondly, the US already has the sole military base in Greenland. Bigger than that of Denmark.

I think they already own the place. They just want to formalize it.

You people need to take a chill pill. The world learnt from the first and second world wars and this world will never experience a 3WW in our time, no matter the level of provocation.
