The U.K. and the U.S. have always had a special relationship and, despite Donald Trump doing everything in his power to turn the world against him, Prime Minister Keir Starmer has constantly tried to appease the president (much to the ire of many in the U.K.). However, Trump’s threats against Greenland have finally prompted Starmer to take a stand, albeit a rather feeble one.
Trump has made it clear he’s dead set on Greenland and the NATO allies can no longer ignore his threats. Last week, Denmark announced that it would increase its military presence in the country and NATO allies sent a symbolic number of troops along as a show of support. Between The U.K., France, Germany, Norway, Sweden and the Netherlands, the number of soldiers sent in support has been estimated at around 50 or fewer, with only one soldier being sent from the U.K.
