Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has warned that implementing US President Donald Trump's plan to seize Greenland would make Russian dictator Vladimir Putin "the happiest man in the world", giving him two victories at once.
Points of attention
- The Spanish Prime Minister emphasizes the seriousness of considering statements regarding potential military actions, hinting at the gravity of the situation.
- Sanchez confirms that Spain has not yet decided on whether to send its military to Greenland for the exercises, highlighting the delicate diplomatic balance at play.
Trump continues to shake up the international arena
Sanchez believes that a possible military takeover of Greenland by the United States would be a scenario that would bring Putin two major victories at once.
A US invasion of this territory would make Vladimir Putin the happiest man in the world. Why? Because it would legitimize his invasion of Ukraine. If the US used force in Greenland, it would be a death blow to NATO. Putin would have a double reason to rejoice.
