Overview
A screenshot of a Twitter/X post by Luke Coffey featuring four quotes about Greenland (claiming it's needed for national security, natural resources, being in the 'backyard,' and that its people are poorly governed). The post then argues that replacing 'Greenland' with 'Crimea' mimics Kremlin talking points about Ukraine, concluding 'This is a problem.'
