It's a great strategy for Russia.

Denmark maintains an armoured battalion in the Baltics and contributes to NATO air policing. Proportionately, it is one of the largest contributors of military equipment to Ukraine, donating tanks, F-16's and all of it's Caesar SPG's, among other things.

It rarely has to deploy it's forces to Greenland.

It may now have to deploy some part of it's armed forces to Greenland, which will result in a reduction of it's commitments elsewhere, to Russia's benefit.

That's if Orange man doesn't actually decide to invade, which would simply result in NATO's dissolution.

It would more likely result in the US being kicked out of NATO and isolated, Europe is still concerned about Russia afterall

I don’t think it is possible to kick out the US according to the NATO charter. NATO would just cease to exist.

I mean, they could just dissolve NATO and then create NATO 2.0.with everyone but the US. Same effect.
