    Not if Denmark demands help from other EU nations to defend their non-EU territory that made the conscious decision to leave us.

      Denmark demands nothing, where are you getting that from?

      Any troops or military aid sent to Greenland were sent freely and independently by individual states.

      What exactly do you think has happened?

        I oppose “freely sent help” to a country/territory that opposes us in the EU. They left the EC in 1983. That’s a fact.

          Yes

          I oppose “freely sent help” to a country/territory that opposes us in the EU.

          Fair. But how is it Greenland’s or Denmark’s or anyone’s fault if e.g. France voluntarily sends support? Isn’t that France’s own fault?

            Yes. So? Greenland and Iceland shouldn’t get any. Everything offered should go to Ukraine who actually want to become EU member.
