"The idea that one Nato country could attack another – a US invasion of
Greenland – is so alien that the most famous article in Nato’s founding treaty
does not distinguish clearly what would happen if two of its members were at
war.
Article 5, the cornerstone of mutual protection, dictates that “an armed attack
against one or more” in Europe or North America shall be considered “an attack
against them all”. Simple enough if the military threat comes from Russia, but
more complicated when it comes from easily the alliance’s most powerful member.
“If the US chooses to attack another Nato country, everything will stop,”
Denmark’s prime minister, Mette Fredriksen, said on Monday. The military
alliance may well continue to exist but its effectiveness will be called into
fundamental question; the obvious beneficiary, an already aggressive Moscow."
