“Jan 13 (Reuters) - Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said Greenlanders could vote to join Russia if U.S. President Donald Trump did not move quickly to secure the Arctic island, Interfax reported on Monday. “Trump needs to hurry. According to unverified information, in a few days there could be a sudden referendum, at which the entire 55,000-strong Greenland could vote to join Russia," Interfax reported, quoting Medvedev, a former Russian president. "And then that’s it. No new little stars on the (U.S.) flag.

Ruskies are trolling Trump! And the EU is so drugged up, they don’t know their azzes from holes in the groung:: “ The EU can save Greenland from Trump with Russia's help. Theoretically, Europe could only prevent Trump in one effective way: by initiating serious negotiations with Putin, as Macron has called for in recent days and weeks. Recently, Meloni and Merz began sending more conciliatory signals towards Moscow, refusing to send soldiers to Ukraine as part of the so-called coalition of the willing, saying that they would not be there if Russia did not agree to this., — writes Geopolitika. news.” Would Denmark sell Greenland to Putin because they hate Trump?

They cannot say goodbye because they never said hello. Just local restaurants there as far as I know.

Yup, he belongs in the looney bin.
So do the cokehead Europeon leaders.
And Macron, Merz and Starmer really wish Trump would just morph into Obummer.
Meloni in Italy and Orban are the only ones that really like Trump.
To: doc maverick
Not likely.
Unless Russia is planning to go nuclear, in that scenario USA will take Greenland by force and call it liberation.

Greenland says it ‘cannot accept’ US takeover after latest Trump threats
https://www.msn.com/en-ca/politics/government/greenland-says-it-cannot-accept-us-takeover-after-latest-trump-threats/ar-AA1U4LFu?ocid=BingNewsVerp
January 12, 2026
Greenland’s government and prime minister issued separate statements on Monday pushing back against U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest comments about taking over the territory, which Trump has said will happen “one way or another.”
The Greenlandic government statement said it “cannot accept” the escalating U.S. rhetoric “in any way” and reaffirmed its position as both a part of Denmark and the NATO military alliance.
“As part of the Danish Commonwealth, Greenland is a member of NATO and the defence of Greenland must therefore be through NATO,” the government statement said.

That’s a Bolshevik for you...fair to bet the snatching of Maduro in the middle of the night and had him flown over the Statue of Liberty before landing rattled Putin a bit. And the Russkies can’t even beat the Ukrainians after years of battle.
Sooner or later the Greenlanders know they are going to have to pick sides, Denmark is not going to protect them and they have put it off long enough.

Oh…..does Medvedev hit the vodka to stay warm?
He does have a loose mouth. Maybe SAYS the sh#t Putie would LIKE to say.

That’s all well and good, but do you have anything about them going to Russia? Those statements made it abundantly clear that they will never agree to be part of Russia. However they also said at that same link We don't want to be Americans...

Ruskies are trolling Trump!That's sure what it looks like and they're so bad at it they might want to confer with India on trolling techniques.

If there was ever any chance for us to acquire Greenland by them agreeing to join us, Trump’s rhetoric blew that chance.
