Western Order at a Crossroads: Beyond Trump’s Greenland Idea
The world has entered a post-western era marked by illiberal international disorder, as exemplified by potential actions of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. A recent global poll reveals a decline in European and global confidence in the US as an ally. The path forward requires a new internationalism that embraces power while rejecting force, and focuses on results over rules. Actions need to be taken regarding Greenland, including diplomatic visits and strengthening financial ties to the EU, which would demonstrate resolve in the face of uncertainty.
