Is Greenland the "Czechoslovakia" of the 21st century? 💡 We analyze Donald Trump’s explosive intervention at Davos (January 21, 2026), where the territorial sovereignty of allies was publicly challenged for the first time. From the demand for "immediate negotiations" to the cold confrontation with Macron, we explore whether the West is definitively moving from a rules-based order to an order of raw transactionalism.
🧊 The Role Reversal at the WEF
Greenland as a "Security Issue": How Trump turned the Davos stage into a tool of strategic pressure, linking territorial claims to US missile defense.
The European Reaction: Emmanuel Macron’s "public defiance" and Ursula von der Leyen’s attempt to define European independence as a shield against strategic blackmail.
The End of Taboos: Why demanding territory from an ally constitutes the ultimate stress test for NATO cohesion and the "rules-based" international order.
📜 Historical Analogy: Munich 1938 vs. Davos 2026
The Role of the Revisionist Power: How Washington’s functional stance today mirrors the logic of 1938, where power is transformed into "right" and allied territories into bargaining chips.
The "Chamberlain" Syndrome: Who within the modern Davos ecosystem is ready to play the role of the appeaser, buying time with "silent arrangements" to avoid a major rift?
The Czechoslovakia of the North: Denmark finds itself in the uncomfortable position of seeing its territory discussed as a "reasonable adjustment" for the security of a third party.
⚖️ Conclusion: A Warning for the Next Crisis
Davos 2026 was not a summit about growth, but a test of endurance for democratic institutions. If territorial revisionism is accepted within the alliance, the message to the rest of the planet is clear: the rules are dead, power is the only currency. Europe must decide whether it will pay the price of its sovereignty or if it will soon find itself out of time to buy.
💬 Conclusion & Call to Action
Do you believe Europe will choose a rift to defend international law, or will it be led into a "dirty compromise" over Greenland? Is NATO capable of surviving this internal crisis? Let us know in the comments! 👇
