Latest Developments on the US-Greenland Annexation Plans:
🟡 Greenland is sliding further into the orbit of US interests, just days after President-elect Donald Trump threatened to annex the Arctic giant island militarily.
🟡 Today, Greenland’s Prime Minister Múte Egede announced plans to grant the US greater access to some of the planet’s richest rare-earth mineral reserves.
🟡 Egede also hinted at deeper military integration with the US, a partnership that could turn Greenland into a major eastern outpost for Washington’s operations.
🟡 Even Denmark, under whose crown Greenland technically remains, has softened its stance. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen stated his government is open to negotiating “legitimate American interests” in Greenland.
🟡 Republican members of Congress introduced a bill that, if adopted, would legally open the door to Trump’s Greenland annexation.

Migrants in Portugal are pushing back against the rising tide of anti-immigrant sentiment through mass protests. Recent protests were organized in response to racist police raids targeting the working-class, multicultural Martim Moniz area of Lisbon.
One raid in particular triggered the protests when police were pictured forcing migrants to line up against walls and searching them in a public display evocative of fascist-era tactics.
While the large pro-migrant demonstration unfolded, far-right supporters attempted to counter protest. However, it drew scant attendance, overshadowed by the pro-migrant march.

Venezuelan President Maduro suggested that Latin American armies should “liberate” Puerto Rico from US colonial rule. His statement was in response to Trump’s recent threats to invade Panama and Greenland.
The comments were made at the International Antifascist Festival in Caracas, a gathering of Venezuela solidarity activists from around the world who reject foreign interventionism and the Venezuelan far-right.
Maduro jokingly proposed that Brazilian troops lead the effort and suggested naming the battalion after Abreu e Lima, a Brazilian rebel leader who joined Bolívar’s troops in Venezuela during the independence wars.
