A shocking warning to the entire planet was issued by the Danes, sounding the global alarm for border changes across the world, including even. the Aegean.
“If the Americans annex Greenland, Greece and Spain will follow,” the Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has long been warning in European fora.
Copenhagen pointed out that the transfer of control of Greenland to the USA would create a precedent that would be extremely dangerous, both for Greek islands in the Aegean and for Spanish territories in North Africa.
In a similar scenario, “Greece could lose its islands in the Aegean Sea, which Turkey claims,” Copenhagen signals.
After Greenland, Spain will be next
The Danish authorities admit that “it will be very difficult” to prevent Donald Trump from annexing Greenland.
At the same time, Copenhagen warns European allies that if Greenland ultimately becomes another state of the USA, Donald Trump will not be satisfied and will then annex other territories as well, such as the Canary Islands.
Copenhagen pointed out that the transfer of control of Greenland to the USA would create a precedent that could, among other things, be used for the annexation of the autonomous territories of Spain in North Africa, Ceuta and Melilla, which Morocco claims.
Shock: “Greece is in danger of losing its islands in the Aegean”
If Donald Trump feels the need to “please” his strategic partner in Africa, he will easily ignore the interests of the Mediterranean country.
Moreover, under a similar scenario, Greece could lose its islands in the Aegean Sea, which Turkey claims.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defense of Denmark, in coordination with its European allies in NATO, announced an enhanced military presence within and around Greenland.
In the area, not only aircraft, ships and soldiers of the Danish Armed Forces will be deployed, but also additional forces from other members of NATO.
Europeans weak in the face of Trump
According to the Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, Stockholm has already sent several officers of its armed forces to Greenland.
The French President Emmanuel Macron has not yet sent troops, but timidly threatened Donald Trump with “unprecedented consequences” if he violates the sovereignty of an ally.
Which consequences, truly, does he mean?
Turkey on a line aligned with Trump and Mitsotakis relativizes international law
Meanwhile, the Greek Turkish confrontation appears to be entering the most dangerous point of recent years, following extreme and openly warlike statements coming from the hard core of Turkish power.
The director of the pro government newspaper Yeni Safak, a figure said to function as an informal adviser to Erdogan, launched a crude threat against Greece, directly challenging every notion of international law, something that was recently also supported by the Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, commenting on the abduction of Maduro with the famous phrase “this is not the moment to comment on the legality of recent actions”.
According to the claims of the Turkish journalist, Greece has transferred “Israeli weapons and Israeli soldiers” to islands of the Aegean, while he even speaks of the installation of “Israeli missile depots and military bases” near the Turkish borders.
Kastellorizo at the center of the Turkish strategy for the Aegean
These are allegations not accompanied by evidence, but systematically used by Ankara to cultivate a climate of fear and nationalist hysteria within the country.
The most alarming reference concerns Kastellorizo.
The columnist of Yeni Safak states without any diplomatic circumlocution that if Athens attempts a “similar move” on the island, then Turkey must seize it immediately and without any hesitation.
“There is no such thing as international law.
There is only the future of Turkey,” he states characteristically, in a phrase that cynically captures the strategic perception of today’s Turkish leadership, power instead of rules, faits accomplis instead of dialogue.

“We will do something in Kastellorizo, whether they like it or not”
At the same time, in a post on 11 January 2026, Turan Oguz explicitly articulates the position that Turkey “will do something” in Kastellorizo, regardless of the will of Greece or the international community.
As he characteristically states, Ankara must proceed with actions in Kastellorizo, because according to him otherwise “Russia or China will seize the island”.
Even more worrying is the questioning of Greek sovereignty included in the same post.
Turan Oguz argues that the fact that Greeks settled on the island “2.000 years ago” does not constitute, in his view, a sufficient basis for sovereignty.
This is a direct historical and legal revision that nullifies not only international treaties, but also every notion of historical continuity.

Real threat
These statements cannot be considered accidental.
On the contrary, they are part of a broader framework of escalation, in which Ankara seeks to present Greece as an advanced outpost of foreign powers, legitimizing in the eyes of Turkish public opinion even a hot incident.
The fact that such positions are expressed by figures with direct access to the presidential environment of Erdogan makes the situation extremely dangerous.
The Aegean is gradually being transformed into a field of psychological warfare, where the rhetoric of confrontation precedes, and prepares, the events.
The question that is now openly posed is whether Turkey is merely threatening or whether it is preparing the ground for a new, controlled or uncontrolled, military incident with unpredictable consequences for the wider region.
