UK's Starmer explains to the media: Trump may have misunderstood the UK's intention to deploy troops to Greenland
The eight-nation "coalition" deployed fewer than one platoon of forces, with Germany pulling out immediately after arriving back home, and the UK "empire" boldly arranging a "007" to land on the island. This move by the UK has angered Trump, who threatened to increase tariffs on the countries that sent troops. This has left UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in constant anxiety.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer held a press conference to explain the deployment of soldiers: The US President may have misunderstood the intention of sending a limited military task force to Greenland. In fact, Europe had no plan to target Trump, but was searching for Russians on the island.
The UK prime minister claimed he had spoken with Trump and discussed the issue with the European forces on Greenland. According to him, the troops were sent there to assess and analyze the risks from Russia.
The first version of Europe searching for "Russians" on Greenland was proposed by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Trump previously threatened to impose tariffs on the eight countries that sent troops to Greenland. Germans quickly withdrew their forces and said that this was the plan. After Germany, Norway also announced the withdrawal of two officers.
European countries "kindly" helped the US arrange soldiers to land on Greenland Island to check for Russian military "threats" and clear the way for the US to station troops on Greenland!
