QOTD: "Upholding Our Sovereignty"

 

A joint statement by the eight NATO allies* responding to the blackmail threats by the criminal Malignant Fascist, attempting to extort these nations into supporting his imperial land grab of Greenland by raising tariffs against them:

“As members of NATO, we are committed to strengthening Arctic security as a shared transatlantic interest. The pre-coordinated Danish exercise ‘Arctic Endurance,’ conducted with Allies, responds to this necessity. It poses no threat to anyone.

We stand in full solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark and the people of Greenland. Building on the process begun last week, we stand ready to engage in a dialogue based on the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity that we stand firmly behind. Tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral. We will continue to stand united and coordinated in our response. We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.”

It's almost unreal that our closest allies would have to warn us about violating the sovereignty of one of them.  This move against Greenland and Denmark by the deranged, out-of-control MF isn't about a "Golden Dome" defense system, or fending off attacks by Russia or China, or our "national security." The U.S. has freedom to open military facilities under a treaty that was signed in the middle of the last century.  It's about exploiting Greenland's natural resources, including rare earth minerals, oil and gas and other valuable assets, that the MF would parcel out to his oligarch friends and donors (while keeping a cut for himself, you can bet).  As we pointed out yesterday, the Kremlin and Beijing are celebrating this ominous rift in an alliance that they've wanted to destroy for decades.
