US President Donald Trump has declared he does not require international law to seize Greenland, a stance that challenges NATO's foundations and jeopardises alliance unity as his administration considers military options.
This declaration, coupled with Vice President JD Vance's criticism of Europe's security posture, highlights divisions in transatlantic relations, provoking anger in Denmark and concerns about significant geopolitical shifts in the Arctic. Amidst winter conditions, the pursuit of control over Greenland has ignited fears of a resurgence in Cold War tensions.
