If Trump takes over Greenland, Putin will also take over Svalbard. This was reported by the Norwegian newspaper "Dagbladet."
"Norwegians don't understand the seriousness of the situation! As soon as Trump takes over Greenland, Putin will immediately take over Svalbard!" - said in the publication.
According to Georg Rikeles, vice director of the European Policy Center, after the annexation of Greenland, Putin would bring the "little green men" to Svalbard to protect the mines in Barentsburg.
He said: "We live in an era dominated by major powers, and Norway and Europe could become pawns in a major political game between the United States, relevant countries, and Russia." Another Norwegian expert, Bjørn Knudsen, said to the publication.
