It takes only one successful hypersonic missile with ten warheads to annihilate RU as Putin knows it. With a handfull of succesful hypersonic missiles, nothing of value would be left. There might be smaller towns intact but no nation anymore. France or UK can each deliver that independently. So, no.

Hypothetical beliefs are irrelevant. If UA had a working nuclear deterrence, it would have made RU to be way more cautious. If the US abandons NATO. The French nuclear arms program will be expanded by adding EU states funding it. If threatened with nukes that will not be answered you loose.

And RU wouldn't have dared to risk an attack on UA if UA retalliates with nukes. Sure it can destroy UA, but to for RU to risk getting annihilated by a much smaller country simply isn't worth the prize at all. Risking its own downfall for a small prize to win. No way. It doesn't make any sense.

Not really, but Trump doesn't understand.
January 18, 2026 at 1:23 PM
The countdown has started for when congress and Trump's own Adm. will invoke the legal mechanisms to remove Trump. Vance and Rubio must have reflected on it by now. Will they join the madness or save the West? This weakens the US, splits the West, causes financial havoc and it's simply deranged.

Without mutually assured destruction, you get Ukraine war and the Venezuela heist. There will be no one in Europe with the luxury to focus on climate crisis after being steamrolled by an aggressor.
January 18, 2026 at 1:14 PM
She just want's Trump to have a path for retreat. Without it Trump will escalate. He might escalate anyway. If not already, Vance and Rubio are discussing if they want to sink into this madness if it progresses or take the chance of a lifetime at some point and invoke the mechanisms of ousting Trump

Nevertheless, we are were we are and an independent nuclear arms program within EU seems like a deterrence worth to boost and enhance for all of the EU going forward. We can't just sit on our hands waiting for the next 3 years to pass, while hoping for something better after that in the oval office

Trump is on a journey that less and less of his administration, GOP and followers see the logic of. The current route causes seious and pointless damages to the US as well as weakens the US and the West facing RU and China. At some point Congress and his Adm. will invoke the mechanisms to oust him.

Greenland is one of three countries within the Danish Kingdom, DK. The DK is an EU member, but Faroe Islands and Greenland are not members of the internal market. However since DK is an EU state, Greenlanders are EU citizens since they are DK citizens living in a part of an EU state.
January 18, 2026 at 8:05 AM
President Trump thought Greenland was a Danish colony. Instead it's a country and a part of a united kingdom which in turn is a EU member state. Greenlanders are EU citizens and Greenland is a part of NATO. Now NATO through EU plus UK and Norway fly in troops. Anybody home in D.C.?

Sweden's prime minister is also heading a conservative party which is an official sister party to GOP. Trump has lost it. For how long will the congress sit idle?
January 17, 2026 at 10:56 PM
If Mike plays it down like this he knows Trump will have to stand down and he tries to establish a way out of the madness. But it's most likely over before this year is over. Either Trump will be removed from office by Congress and his own Government or the mid-terms will take care of it.

No "wunderwaffen" will save Russia and still maybe Solovyev is right. With the SMO fiasco draining Russia, the named countries may indeed become tighter but under Beijing, even with the Far East/Siberian parts annexed by China at some point down the timeline of the RU decay process.

The Art of War by Zun Zsu which is mandatory reading for the leading class of politicians, civil servants and business leaders states that "deception is key" (Taiwan focus when the real goal is Siberia) and "never stop an adversary when they make mistakes" (RU:s continued SMO fiasco draining RU).

Plan B is most likely ready for launch if the US should go bananas and abandon NATO. Germany, the Nordics, Poland, Italy and Benelux countries are all ready and prepared to buy into and boost the the French nuclear arms program to grow at short notice in an EU/UK/CAN separate alliance.
January 10, 2026 at 6:17 PM
There is no security council reviewing or disallowing NATO training events.

Iceland has a standing invitation from the US to receive statehood since it declared its independence from Denmark in 1944. So we all know what comes after Greenland, then Svalbard.
January 10, 2026 at 5:56 PM
You organize a NATO long term rotating training mission to Greenland with multiple NATO countries, e.g. Canada, UK, France, Germany, the Nordics, Benelux, etc. It strengthens Greenland defense, a tripwire setup. Any order to attack long standing brothers in arms will cause disgust withn US forces.
January 10, 2026 at 5:53 PM
Note how team Trump always try to phrase Greenland as some Danish possession, a surplus territory. It's not. Greenland, Faroe Islands and Denmark are 3 countries forming the Danish Kingdom (DK). Similar to the UK with it's 4 countries. The US consists of 50. Some far away like Hawaii or Alaska.
January 6, 2026 at 8:11 AM
Why should the US have 50 colonies? All represented by a star in the flag. The Danish Kingdom comprices 3 countries (the UK consists of 4). None are colonies.
January 6, 2026 at 12:08 AM
It will cause a rift beyond repair between US and EU/UK/CAN. The US themselves has estimated that they can't handle China in a military clash. Alienating EU/UK/CAN will weaken the US. Germany, Benelux, Poland and the Nordics will buy into the French nuclear arms program. EU will be forced to unite.
January 4, 2026 at 11:35 PM
Not to spoil the moment, but Sweden invaded Denmark after the battle of Leipzig 1813 against Napoleon and wrenched Norway from Denmark. Norwegians were not happy so they declared independence 1814 at Eidsvoll and was invaded by Sweden and forced into a union with in 1814. So not 1811, 1814.
January 4, 2026 at 11:29 PM
It's as stupid as it gets. Greenland is one of 3 countries wihin the Danish Kingdom (DK). UK is similar containing 4 countries. Greenlanders are EU citizens since DK is an EU state, even if Greenland is not a part of the common market and DK is a NATO member. Hostile US takover of EU?
