Greenland, as an autonomous territory of Denmark, is an overseas country and territory (OCT) of the EU. As such it receives funding and has many agreements with the EU. This will drive a huge wedge between the USA and the EU. Perhaps more than anything else he’s currently doing. Denmark is also a NATO country and so who knows what would happen if the US essentially attacked the territory of another NATO member, it’s unprecedented and also likely why Trump wants to withdraw from NATO.
