The Greenland deal makes the U.S. exit from a sclerotic NATO more likely!!

Moscow is decisively locked out of the vital maritime corridors of the North Atlantic. Beijing is permanently evicted from Arctic rare earth deposits and stripped of its Polar Silk Road ambitions.

In sum, for a number of reasons, that dated Cold War-era treaty needed to be supplanted by something better, and better is what we got. This week’s agreement, which cost us nothing, guarantees forever “the complete ability to do what is necessary in Greenland in order to secure and defend “our security and that of Greenland.”

“Additionally, from now on, no U.S. adversary can ever have a base in Greenland, have a military presence in Greenland, or make sensitive investments in Greenland, without our express written approval.”

Why, it’s as if Trump looked at the world map and drew a red-line fortress around the U.S., protecting the North from bases in Greenland, protecting the South by ousting Maduro from Venezuela and setting up the toppling of Cuba while clearing out China from the Panama Canal.

The geopolitical chessboard has been permanently rewritten, and the architects of managed American decline are staring into the abyss of their own irrelevance. Donald Trump has executed the [sic] one of the most significant territorial and security consolidations since the purchase of Alaska in 1867.
