        Thanks for clearing that up. Didn’t realise it was the tariffed NATO countries and thought it was a NATO statement in general.

        Too tired to read properly I guess haha

          To be fair Canada are also dealing with a load of shit coming from Trump. You could safely assume they would co-sign this statement if they were involved.

            And in the meantime we’re signing a bunch of things that hurt Trump just as much, if not more; mutually-beneficial trade agreements with a bunch of other countries and trading blocs.

    Has anyone told the snoozer-in-chief how much of the US’ debt is held by NATO nations?

      I was hoping Merz would publicly advise european banks on withdrawing investments in dollar and in AI firms as those could become volatile over the Greenland matter. You don’t even have to specify how, but the leader of the 4th largest economy of the world should have sway on the markets. Let the USA feel that they themselves are very much dependent on Europe and NATO
