>The Greenland Crisis Response from EU was surprisingly muscular tho.
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?
