A major conflict is emerging between Europe and Donald Trump, partly due to US proposals to increase control over Greenland. Danish authorities emphasize that the disagreements are not with the US as a whole, but with specific political figures, while tensions between Europeans and the Trump administration are growing.
Trump and his supporters claim that Greenland should be under American control to ensure protection from Russia and China. However, China opposes any occupation, and US media suggests that Washington's real goals may go beyond Greenland.
In response, Europe is discussing the creation of a new alliance—structures similar to NATO but without mandatory US involvement, with Ukraine playing a central role. Such a bloc could unite the EU, the UK, Norway, and Ukraine as a key partner with technological and military capabilities.
Europe is preparing a €93 billion sanctions package to influence US companies and deter US claims on Greenland. Denmark continues to stress that security is a pan-European issue.
Meanwhile, Russian representatives like Medvedev make ironic comments about the situation, though experts note Russia continues to lose influence globally due to economic and political isolation.
The political dynamics also involve European figures such as Czech Prime Minister Babiš and Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán, who are connected to Trump and potential pro-Russian circles. Discussions continue about Hungary and Italy joining the new security format proposed by Trump, but these countries have not yet made final decisions.
US media reports suggest the "Greenland conflict" is a distraction and that Trump’s real target may be Canada. Analysts remark that North American integration has long been discussed, with renewed speculation about US intentions.
Amid these global events, Ukraine prepares for negotiations and the signing of the "Prosperity Plan" at the Davos Forum. Particular attention is given to security challenges: President Zelensky again warns of possible Russian strikes on nuclear power plants, and Ukrainian authorities run an active information campaign in the West to secure ally support and highlight the real threat from Russia.
Overall, the situation remains tense as the world anticipates developments in Northern Atlantic countries, US policy toward allies, and Ukraine's ongoing struggle for security and prosperity.
