This is great news. One can really appreciate the way Trump works. The minerals are off the table but can be dealt with without the encroachment of our adversaries(economic/military+diplomatic). Nations that don't care for us are finding out the hard way they're better off doing it our way. All it took was a strong leader.

Will this agreement hold up when the next Biden/Kamala takes office? The Monroe Doctrine was being whittled away over several decades by both GOP and democrat administrations. This is Trump acting with a blunt instrument.

I’m assuming this has gotten negative or no coverage in the legacy media.

I can’t know for sure. I don’t watch it.

He really is reshaping the world to our interests:
1. Greenland security - minerals to follow
2. Panama Canal - China out
3. Venezuela - Communist out, China out, US oil interests in
4. Cuba - In progress
5. Iran - nuclear weapons program decimated
6. South America - many countries now US-aligned, pro-freedom, communism on the ropes.
7. NATO Countries - coughing up their money for European defense

Shouldn’t this be Breaking News?

This is encouraging news, albeit devils, details, and all that are yet to come.

Don’t kid yourself...Canada is saying “Thank God!”.

Everyone, even here on FR, keeps bitching and muttering, but this presidential genius has accomplished more in two years than all post-WWII presidents or congresses combined...

It says non-NATO countries are excluded from establishing military bases in Greenland. My understanding was the original issue was that China was negotiating a mineral concession that would permit the building of a port facility. That was at least initially, purportedly a completely civilian operation. So does this new agreement explicitly deal with such a facility? It’s not clear that it does. I think he’s made it clears he won’t accept such a thing but it’s not clear they have “permanently” agreed to forgo it.

I seem to remember a-holes claiming Trump was going to invade and take over Greenland. Where are they now?

This was his plan all along.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

Zero evidence this exact deal couldn't have been obtained without embarrassing ourselves and pissing off our allies.

They never opposed a single security request we made. Not one.

[GOPJ]

Maybe having American bases in Greenland - and an agreement never to allow Russian or Chinese bases in Greenland WAS the goal all along. Our country is much safter because of this move. Thank YOU President Trump.

How long before a Judge nixes the deal?

Now we have to smooth over all the anger and hurt feelings.

Can we get Victor Borge to perform at a “Tuborg Summit” for all concerned?
