Trump's threat to acquire Greenland exposed a fundamental weakness in Europe's security strategy: its inability to act in unison when facing U.S. pressure, even as an overwhelming majority of Europeans now view him as a force against negative peace. https://theconversation.com/trumps-greenland-threats-reveals-no-win-dilemma-at-the-heart-of-european-security-strategy-274556

@TheConversationUS Who wrote this quote? Last sentence appears to say the opposite of what it intends to say, and is confusing.

If he is a "force against negative peace", is "negative peace" war? If so, he is a force against war? Is that what this convoluted sentence means? 🤔
