For those wondering, some US government representatives tried to find some citizens of Greenland to host them for a propaganda show, and were politely but unanimously told to fuck all the way off.
I still want to know why US presence is still even welcomed on Danish soil. The US is now a country that has repeatedly stated its intentions to annex Greenland, by force if necessary, using rationale similar to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Why were these people even allowed to land the plane? Their whole point of visiting was to literally go to Danish citizens and create a propaganda video in order to rationalize the forced annexation of Greenland. This is literally the exact same shit Russia has been doing with regards to Ukraine. Only difference is that Zelenskyy wasn't letting Russia park their tanks in Kyiv and start filming pro-Russia propaganda in the Donbas during the lead-up.
Why the fuck hasn't every US ambassador been kicked out of Denmark? Why hasn't Denmark demanded the US close its base? Why hasn't Denmark told this visiting envoy that the envoy will not be welcomed? Seriously, this is a country threatening to invade you. It's like responding to someone threatening to steal your house by letting him crash in your spare bedroom while he plans the robbery.
