This is about Scandinavia, but let’s start with the Anglosphere. The other day, on his Talk TV show Piers Morgan Uncensored, the eponymous host discussed various topics with a panel whose most garrulous member was Kara Swisher, a stunningly obnoxious lesbian columnist – yes, even more obnoxious than Piers himself – whom I’ve never seen or read before but who obviously thinks that she’s brilliant and that everyone else is an idiot.
The subject of Trump wanting to acquire Greenland came up. It turned out that neither the slimy Piers nor the odious Kara had been aware until Trump began talking about Greenland recently (or, actually, resumed talking about it after having done so briefly during his first term) that the island is owned by Denmark. Nonetheless both of them had strong opinions about the issue. For Kara, Trump’s refusal to rule out the use of military force to annex Greenland was one more reason to call him a fool. But hey, at least Trump knew that Greenland is owned by Denmark.
For the rest of Piers’s panelists, as for many other stateside talking heads, the Greenland issue was mainly a cause for mirth. But let’s move on to Scandinavia, where, for the most part, it was anything but.
“Just think of it for an instant,” wrote Maja Sojtaric in Norway’s Nettavisen: “an upcoming president of the world’s largest military power is willing to use his superior force to take over the territory of one of his allies.” Yes, commented Sojtaric, Trump is “easy to mock,” but “his wish to take territory from one of his allies is not a joke.” On the contrary, she warned, it’s “unbelievably dangerous. It destabilizes NATO. It ought to worry us here in Norway. A destabilization of NATO makes us extremely vulnerable.”
