  • Donald Trump has escalated his imperialist rhetoric against Europe, considering the use of force to invade Greenland.
  • These actions endanger the transatlantic relationship and Europe's security.
  • It is necessary for Europe to strengthen its strategic autonomy to reduce its dependence on the United States.
  • Trump has strategic and economic reasons for the annexation of Greenland, including control of natural resources and blocking the expansion of China and Russia.
  • The EU tries to lessen tension with Trump, but defends its sovereign borders, a warning that has historically been aimed at Putin.

Conclusion: Trump's escalating imperialist rhetoric toward Europe and the potential annexation of Greenland weakens the transatlantic relationship, heightens tensions, and underscores Europe's need to strengthen its strategic autonomy.
