Belaqua:
- I don’t agree with you. And I don’t think this is serious. If I was an American I would have strong words for the US President for the Greenland + US Tariffs on Europe thing.
I mean there are thousands of people who depend on foreign trade to make a living (on both sides of the Atlantic). What is he planning to do if the EU decides to put 10% on US goods? What happens then?
2) (On the rearming of Germany): Well I don’t know. It is mostly unsuccessful Germans who are voting for the AFD. The same is happening in France with Marine Lepen and even in the UK with Nigel Farage.
Russia + Iran + China are trying to boost these movements to bring Trump-like people in Europe. Their ultimate goal (if you ask me) is to divide the West from within. Make NATO explode for a place that has historical importance because of its early Viking settlements, make the EU explode due to concerns over migration, make EU-US military and economic alliances obsolete to that they can take over local markets (The Chinese are currently taking over the EV market in Canada. Thanks to Mr. Trump putting tariffs on Canadians). The same scenario may repeat itself in Europe.
So no: you are right, but that’s not the real issue here
Architect of Fate: “NATO is useful because of Russia”.
- Hey, what about China? Besides: New threats can emerge from virtually anywhere. Right now: Even from the US itself. I think Republicans themselves are going to stop this from happening. But what do you do if he (or someone worse than him in the future) decides to send troops to Greenland, Island or the Panama Canal?
/Things like NATO or the UN need to expand in the future. We need an International world order. The world economy is still globalizing and different countries are still on the path of unification. So we need to be able to organize and regulate all of that. If not than what’s the alternative?

Many bots promoting Scottish independence on social media went silent since January the 8th and are expected to restart their activities this week when Iran’s ban on the Internet end and Internet connection in the country is restored.
