From how bad US treats EU, it definitely felt like EU had a stockholm syndrome.
The Greenland Crisis Response from EU was surprisingly muscular tho. I hope that they can keep on moving in that trajectory and fix apart from the stockholm syndrome.
It's kind of understandable why EU might have such syndrome but America's the toxic drunk partner in the relationship abusing EU and EU kind of needs to step out or be more masculine and not be abused basically (in my opinion).

Wait, what was the muscular response?
AFAIK some countries sent a handful of soldiers to Greenland for a few days, then called them back, and a couple of pension funds from Sweden and Denmark threaten to sell the US bonds they hold, plus the threat of some extra tariffs from the EU which already has the short end of the stick from Ursula's last trade deal with Trump where she folded like a deck chair to his demands. Our current trade relationship with the US leaves us worse off than during the pre-Trump era, so I don't really see how we're on top here.
Did I miss anything that shifted power balance back to us in EU and I didn't hear about?
