Trump’s invasion of Greenland would be ‘the shortest war in the world’ – POLITICO
www.politico.eu

The U.S. has — by far — the world’s largest defense budget, spending $948 billion last year. Its armed forces have 1.3 million personnel — some of them currently stationed in Greenland. Denmark, for its part, last year spent $9.9 billion, has only 17,000 soldiers, and most of its heavy land-warfare equipment has been donated to Ukraine.

      This is probably rude to say, but I frankly expected that you of all people would’ve known better. In hindsight I don’t know why I’d think Greenland being Inuit country was common knowledge, but I still find it very bizarre and shameful that so many people here would apparently have such a total misconception of the basic character of a country currently appearing in daily headlines.
