If the US takes Greenland, I fear that NATO will be effectively dissolved. Denmark probably invokes Article 5… does anyone come to their aid against the US? Seems unlikely. If they do, let’s be real here, the US will just acquire new colonies. Either way, NATO means next to nothing; total Russian victory. Russia gets to sabotage/colonize western and then eastern Europe, and China gets Taiwan (if they feel like calling the US’s bluff) and whatever else they want. The only truly sovereign countries left will be the ones with a hefty nuclear arsenal.

If the US takes Greenland and NATO doesn’t respond Canada is next.
