Even with missiles there isn’t any reason to invade Greenland, apart of a NATO member, there is already an US Base there since 50 years. No, Rusia and China are not the reason, but rare earth in Greenland are, like in Venezuela the oil, not the democracy… The next is Panama and Canada in the expansions plan “to make America great again” (and the paria for the rest of the world).
Distance from the eastern most part of Russia to Moscow is 6300 km. It is literally on the other side of the planet, the longitude seperation is almost 200 degrees.
Do you know what that means? It is faster to go from Alaska through Canada, the Atlantic ocean, then through Europe to get to Moscow than it is to go by the eastern side of Russia.
