@harm7602vicount-Visconti There is a former foregin minister of Russia, in the 90's, that are interviewed now and then in US TV channels, and he is living in the US for many years now. many will call him 'biased', but anyway he is able to give some good insight in the mindset of Soviet and Russian leadership through the years, as he was a part of it. One typical thing he pointed out was that there was a general fear among the ministers and advicers of the leader, now Putin, to tell all the actual facts what's going on out there. They more wanted to tell what they expected the leader wanted to hear. And as a former KGB agent Putin was kind of 'I know it all the best', and not so much listened to his advicers, that actually had facts from the field. One speculated if it actually could be that Putin was convinced to a degree that it was nazies governing Ukraine, that their army was weak and would surrender after some few days, the president run away abrioad, while the people would belcome being liberated by the Russians, as this was what his adviceres think he wanted the most to hear. Regarding NATO vs Putin on one hand feared them supporting a coup but on the other hand also 'enjoyed' them pushing up to the russian borders as he could use NATO as an excuse for the bad economic situation among russians in general. This vs the fact that Russia is among the richest nations in the world when it comes to natural resources, and people should have quite some higher standard of living if not most of the money went into the pockets of a small elite. 'NATO is threathing Russia very much, and are just waiting for a chance to invade us like Hitler in ww2, we are forced to spend enorumous amounts of our country's money on weapons, so this is why you the people, must accept living a simple life. But not worry, your strong leader for life will protect you from evil NATO'

We understand that Denmark nowadays is not the 'owner', or a possible 'seller', but just a rich uncle giving aid to the island, getting nothing back than mostly complaints why they don't give more) Maybe it's not a totally crazy idea to sit down and at least gently concider the idea of maybe, just maybe 'IF', letting someone else take over the role as rich uncle, if they so much want it, and naturally, if Greenland self agrees) Anyway, I guess the artic region is just getting a more and more important Place for the super powers to 'smash' together in the future. One can laugh of Trumps ideas now, but one never know in 20-30, 50 years, the situation up there
