American senators reject the idea of using military force in Greenland

John Curtis, senator from Utah, stated on platform X that the use of military force in Greenland is inappropriate and he will not support it, insisting on strengthening relations with Denmark and Greenland. Greenland, with a population of approximately 56,000 inhabitants, is an autonomous territory of Denmark, a NATO ally. Don Bacon, senator from Nebraska, denounced discussions about Greenland as harmful to NATO partnerships, calling the idea of absorbing it one of the "stupidest" proposals. John Kennedy, senator from Louisiana, emphasized that invading Greenland would be a "stupidity" and denied planning an invasion, mentioning that new ways of cooperation in defense can be sought.

Mette Frederiksen, the Danish Prime Minister, warned that an attack on Greenland would destroy NATO. Donald Trump claimed that the U.S. needs Greenland for national security, but his statements were rejected by Denmark and the European Union. Discussions resurfaced after recent U.S. military operations in Venezuela.
