      Are you sure? Greenland and USA have had a very special agreement since 1951. I am not sure that this is the case.

        Surely they can cavity search them, force them to ublock all their tech and leave them in a freezing cell with a hole in the ground for a toilet for a few days?

            That’s unfortunate for them, because being confronted with even bigger horrible fucking monsters is the only thing the bullies and thugs of the Trump regime respond to.

              It’s not their place to start an international incident that gives the US their “justification” to invade.

              The people of Greenland are relying on the people of the US.

      50,000 people live in Greenland. I mean it literally when I say I don’t believe they can.

        Canadians can be refused entry to America based on the border guards not believing what we say about anything.

        Every nation/group of nations (ie: the EU) has border guards who can refuse non-citzens entry, so ofc they can.

        But rn it’s a game of chess. Is Greenland willing to pay the cost of refusal, because knowing who and what Trump is means the cost could be huge.

          Usa was granted free access to greenmal in 1951 and were allowed to build military bases without even telling Denmark what they are up to. It is more complicated than just closing the door on them

              Well the news today are that the visit will now only be in the USA military bases and that they will not attend a planned visit to some dog race that they had originally planned.

              From what I know of other USA military bases, they are more or less considered USA territory. In any way though, the visit will now be contained within the military bases
