The significance of sending troops to Greenland by Europe is not great. The reason for sending troops is to express an attitude - if the United States occupies Greenland through military means, Europe will collectively defend and counterattack.
In fact, both the United States and Europe are clear that if it really comes to that, Europe has no chance of winning. Years of severe dependence on the United States has made Europe extremely vulnerable. Using military force to prevent the U.S. from occupying the island can only be a self-inflicted humiliation.
Of course, the United States also does not hope to acquire the island through military options. Why use force if it can be peacefully occupied? Moreover, military occupation is far less dignified than peaceful pressure.
Tomorrow, Rubio will meet with Denmark, and the topic will be the issue of Greenland's sovereignty. Let's wait and see!
