Summary

A YouGov poll found that 46% of Danes view the US as a major threat, surpassing concerns about North Korea and Iran but trailing Russia (86%).

Additionally, 78% oppose selling Greenland to the US, though 72% believe Greenland should decide its own fate.

The poll follows heightened tensions over Trump’s repeated claims that acquiring Greenland is an “absolute necessity” for US economic security.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has sought European unity in response, warning of shifting relations with the US.

      I’m Norwegian, so the educational system is basically the same. Though, I’m not sure about today, but growing up in the 90’s, we learned a lot about WW2, including pictures of when our elementary school was overtaken by the Nazis, so you’d think they’d be aware of it.
