Europe considers Greenland-Ukraine swap amid security talks
European diplomatic circles are evaluating a security-for-security package deal whereby Europe would secure stronger guarantees from the Trump administration for its support of Ukraine, while the United States would expand its presence in Greenland. This scenario, attributed to a European diplomat believed to be Kaja Kallas, aims to enhance regional stability.
According to Reuters, France is coordinating with its allies on contingency plans should the US take aggressive actions toward Greenland. The alternative to such an agreement risks provoking Donald Trump’s displeasure, potentially triggering sanctions against Europe.
These discussions reflect European countries’ efforts to fortify their security and maintain favorable relations with the United States amid complex geopolitical challenges. The outcome of these negotiations may significantly influence the balance of power in the Atlantic region.
