Danish ambassador posts ‘friendly reminder’ about defence ties after provocative MAGA post over territory

The US bombardment of Venezuela and the capture of its president, Nicolás Maduro, have renewed fears of an American takeover of Greenland, as members of Donald Trump’s MAGA movement gleefully set their sights on the Danish territory after the attack in South America.

Just hours after the US military operation in Venezuela, the rightwing podcaster Katie Miller – the wife of Stephen Miller, Donald Trump’s powerful deputy chief of staff for policy – posted on X a map of Greenland draped in the stars and stripes with the caption: “SOON.”

The threat to annex the mineral-rich territory, which is part of the NATO alliance, drew immediate outrage from Danes.
