Moment “American representatives were seen in the city”, were they outside the base? That would have been the moment to do to the Americans what they do to the tourists and have them arrested directly… Legally that shouldn’t be a problem, after all it’s a matter of national security, and there have already been more than enough hostile statements and indirect announcements of war.
Edit: replaced deeples non sense
Usually American soldiers and military personnel are exempt from local policing. In Germany, they couldn’t be stopped for a traffic control or asked to identify themselves by German police, only US military police. There even was a guy that got away with murder because of some related issues.
Here’s the story:
I was immediately reminded of the g20 summit in Hamburg (not because of America) Well…
Yeah, the lack of local accountability was a large part of why Trump “threatening” to pull the military out of Japan was a monumentally stupid bluff. Japanese people already hate the US military, because the average Japanese person’s perception of the US military is “drunk dude causes damage/hurts someone and flees back to base where he will never see any punishment.” It also came at a time when hardline conservatism and patriotism (bordering on jingoism) is increasingly popular in Japan. Japan basically went “fucking do it then.”
Good job, Greenland! Proud of you. Every country should do this.
I will repeat it: Greenlanders are very based.
If you are ever in Denmark, spend an hour to visit the Greenland museum, a huge raised middle finger of an exposition reminding everyone of Danish colonialism, placed right in the middle of Copenhagen.
They are not well treated by the Danes either, who only recently recognized them the right for translators in the Danish parliament.
It’s nice to see some good news from time to time in these troubling times.
I like to think they didn’t want to meet the Vances because they were afraid for the safety of their couches.
Very close, but more likely it’s an made-up excuse because they realize it’s a bit uncertain if border security would let her back into the USA /s
Sucks to suck.
I hope it really is cancelled
He actually visited Greenland. I just saw it in the news. He just avoided the capital and only visited an army base.

Space force base. And not “an” but “the”.
Fucking chicken, his staff apparently were too afraid that locals would have pelted him with eggs.
He’d face the same treatment in most American cities, better get used to it.
No one could afford that
We will just use the poop left laying around by all the homeless in need of mental health treatment and a safe place to live.
They really were hoping to find the one place that was willing to ostracize themselves for the headlines and the clicks. Thank you Greenland for fighting the good fight.
It feels good to see fascists being treated appropriately.
I mean, they’re still alive though
Diplomatically, this is as good as it gets, unfortunately.
IDK. They could have used Vance to reenact the well scene from 300.
THIS! IS! GREENLAND!!!
OMG. I have it! Eureka! Replace the well with a glacial crevasse!
We need the remix version of that
And Vance’s wife, compared to Trump, Melania, and JD, is exceedingly capable at putting a reasonable face on this shit-stain of a regime, which makes it all the more satisfying that she’s being rebuffed the same as any of the others.
You don’t invite foreign invaders, you shoot them between the eyes. See Ukraine.
Glad they got the hint.
Imagine an ice center in Greenland detaining the vp and his wife citing a decades old law. 👁️👄👁️
I’m willing to bet they don’t understand why because the know “Everybody adores us”
It’s spelled usher, dumb fucks…
