It yet explains what's going on with Greenland. In fact, common sense always pointed to this, and there were those who knew from the beginning. Careful observers during this terrible conflict saw Denmark conduct business peacefully with the United States, buying weapons for billions of dollars. So it was hard to talk about cooling down relationships. Data was inactive available on the authoritative websites of the U.S. government, which is besides available to alleged experts and those pseudojournalists who would like to engage in journalism. Specialised magazines available to all besides wrote about bilateral arms contracts.

The details of the transaction have not been disclosed, so it is not known how many conditions, discounts and discounts are included or on what scale. However, the United States has approved at least six large arms contractswith Denmark in six weeks starting mid-November 2025. These include US$318 million for AIM-9X missiles (14 November), US$730 million for AIM-120C-8 missiles (11 December), US$951 million for AMRAAM-ER missiles (23 December), US$1.8 billion for P-8A aircraft (29 December), US$45 million for Hellfire missiles (8 January 2026). This is an tremendous increase compared to erstwhile years.

Defense Post 23 December 2025

After grotesque actions of powerless Europeans and stormy media reactions quietly, a bilateral agreement was concluded. Donald Trump didn't say anything about her until he was on the WEF. The method details of the agreement stay unknown for apparent reasons, as it is about defence. Here are the terms of the alleged contractual framework, based on Trump's posts, leaks from American officials and corporate media reports:

  • The agreement covers more than Greenland and the US. Includes NATO, the right to build a rocket shield Golden Dome and extends to the full Arctic beyond Russia's control.

  • The United States will not own the island, but will receive sovereign zones, on which they will be able to build military bases and possibly carry out another activities, e.g. mining or research.

  • The United States will someway contribute to or control the improvement of uncommon earth mining.

  • China and Russia are not allowed in Greenland.

  • The United States does not pay Denmark or Greenland, or at least no payments have been mentioned.

  • Trump said she'd have a deal. unspecified the duration, i.e. it will be constant.

Where is this terrible violation of global law and sovereignty, about which the most loudly shouted out European unelected rulers favorably breaking the law and sovereignty of the Union countries? For good, this is simply a confirmation of the state that arose during planet War II and continued to this day. In 1940, on April 9, after six hours of fierce defense, the German army seized Denmark. Shortly thereafter, she besides appeared in Greenland.

Then the Danish ambassador against the collaborational government signed an agreement with the US on an American protectorate over Greenland, which shortly became a fact. After the war, the island was “turned back” to Denmark, but it is not essential to convince anyone that it is not the military power of the Kingdom of Denmark to halt China or Russia from occupying this territory. Just as it is not the army of the Kingdom of Norway that keeps them from becoming more curious in the Svalbard archipelago.

Dwarfs can administer dog teams and tourist movement, and even conduct investigation and exploration of oil, but erstwhile it comes to the interests of power, they have small to talk about. In my opinion, just as Russia had the right to defend itself against placing NATO bases in Ukraine, so the US has the right to search control of the key territories for their security. Anyone who thinks otherwise is simply a victim of illusion.

It is good to remember what happened erstwhile the USSR tried use Cuba to find their missiles close the US. Since JFK, technology has gone forward and rockets travel longer distances in a short time, and it is time to respond is simply a key component of defence. Thus, effective defence requires expanding distances.

Paradoxically, the American presence in Greenland increases our security, as it stabilizes status quo and dismisses the threat of planet War III, on which the edge led us to the media-proclaimed demented figure Joe Biden. Controlled by invisible globalists and arms manufacture lobbyists asleep Joe, neglecting US border protection, at the same time irritated Russia and China close their borders. This could not have ended well, but for globalists, profit and planet power are more crucial than the destiny of billions of people.

We should remember that Poland was expected to be another battlefield in Ukraine to weaken Russia without engaging the American Army. Article 5 of the NATO Pact wouldn't aid us. In the Warsaw shelter Joe Balakał from teleprompter to Polish parliamentarians his supposedly historical words, preparing to throw us against Russia. And these stupid and dreary dark journalists, they told us to be delighted with a globalist jack. We won't return a button.

Long live the eternal inviolable relationship and cooperation between the russian and Cuban people. Then Cuba, now Venezuela.

The current agreement looks reasonable, so we can ask what Trump was talking about buying Greenland or taking it by force? Meanwhile, this is the classical art of making transactions in Trump's release. In short, 1 of its elements can be summarised as follows.

Trump wants something that the another side is very resistant to, so he asks for 10 times more at first, and then the another side gets furious or terrified. They experience it intensely and carry their emotions until it becomes a large news. Eventually, they make him an offer he graciously accepts. This offer is more or little what they could have agreed to from the very beginning, acting rationally, but they are satisfied due to the fact that they think they have avoided the worst. And media buffoons are repeating.

Every decision comes with all kinds of news. Media, politicians and, of course, experts are talking about something, and then it turns out it was something rather different. By the time the company cools down, Trump is already moving in a different direction, appearing where no 1 expects him. After a while, a image emerges that all of this was just a preparation of the ground for something much bigger.

However, as in the Greenland case described above, key cognition frequently lies in plain sight, available to all. And if experts and journalists showed a bit of humility, acknowledging their ignorance, and took their work seriously, alternatively of repeating propaganda, their assessments could be closer to reality.

An crucial part of the puzzle is simply a 1987 book by Donald Trump entitled The Art of Negotiations (The Art of The Deal). A photograph of the book cover can be admired at the beginning of this post. The villains will claim that Trump himself did not compose anything, and the real author is Tony Schwartz. Without doubt, however, Trump was the trigger force, even if he did not personally tap the keys, he dictated. You can see after reading any part of the book, due to the fact that Trump's kind is peculiar and hard to fake. Besides, Trump is the author of 10 another books with another authors and there were akin allegations each time. After co-authors, the proceeding went missing.

Whole second chapter The Art of Negotiations is devoted, surprise!, just the art of negotiation, as Trump sees it and uses it. So he explains many things to those capable of reading with understanding. Those who talk English are encouraged to read the passages of the book, while here I compose a summary of chapter two. In Trump's actions, readers most likely admit the elements from the list below despite media efforts to fake the image.

Philosophie of Donald Trump's negotiations — the main principles of The Art of the Deal

Think big

  • Trump rejects tiny ambitions. He thinks energy, time and effort needed for the average task are almost the same as for the hugeSo it's worth aiming high.

  • The large goal attracts attention, partners and capital.

Protect yourself from negativity and pessimism

  • An environment full of skeptics and “realists” can kill enthusiasm.

  • Trump thinks Faith in Success and Confidence They act like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Have options — never be blocked 1 way

  • The worst negotiating position is no alternative.

  • Trump has always developed different scenarios: this allowed him to say no without fear of loss.

Use leverage (advantages, levers)

  • Negotiate from the position of force — actual or Perceptually created.

  • Sometimes it's adequate to convince the another side that you have better options to change conversation dynamics.

Be unpredictable, do not uncover yourself completely

  • People effort to read your intentions — if you are transparent, they can win you over.

  • Trump frequently uses strategic fog: half information, amazing phrases, reaction testing.

Negotiation is theatre — take advantage of emotion and image

  • Just as crucial as the facts are perception, speech of voice, gestures and drama.

  • Trump made the show a negotiation to influence the psyche of his partners.

You know your worth, but respect the facts

  • Trump emphasizes the strength of confidence, but always collects facts, data and figures.

  • Knowledge of all item of the investment or task allowed him to “press” his partners without emotion.

Don't fall in love with a transaction

  • Emotional attachment to a single deal is the death of a negotiator.

  • Trump can leave the table even at the last moment.

Use media as leverage

  • Famous “control of narrative”: Trump understands that public opinions influence the decisions of investors and politicians.

  • It builds the image of the winner, who in itself gives the advantage in subsequent negotiations.

Always Think Long - word — But Act Fast

  • Trump combines 2 seemingly contradictory features: strategical planning and fast decisions.

  • He thinks definitely is the currency of strength.

Take care of the image of a hard but just partner

  • People request to know and believe that You keep your word. — even if you are ruthless in negotiations.

  • It gives you a reputation that acts as a credit for subsequent transactions.

The winner is the 1 who controls the rhythm of the talks

  • Trump frequently drags talks, changes pace, or abruptly acts fast — to confuse the another side.

  • Time is simply a negotiating toolnot a neutral factor.

Negotiations are the art of perception. If the another side believes that they request you more than you do, you've already won.

As I mentioned, Trump is co-author of another books. On the CIA-pedia in the book slogan The Art of Return you can read specified comments from the media:

Fred Andrews of "The fresh York Times" He wrote: “This man combines imagination with strength. If only he could keep his mouth shut” and noted that “Trump keeps repeating apparent things as if his observations were first or important”[14]. meantime Craig Offman from ‘Salon’ noted that Trump "recognises that he suffers an even greater political burden: honesty" [15] .

How does that relate to the current constant assault. They can say whatever they want, but if they read his books carefully, they could realize more themselves and halt putting us in the dark. But propaganda is more important. After Trump showed the nativity of the Tsaric of Europe, could Ursuli von der Leyen and respective another leaders compose about him objectively?
