NATO, Denmark and Greenland have denied that threat is there in the way that the United States describes.
There is a concern in Europe about military intervention in Greenland.
How likely do you think that might be?
And therefore, the real concern about...
the end of NATO.
And I was listening to your remarks earlier on Bloomberg television that you were saying that, you know, you're in the capital of, you know, the place where NATO has its headquarters, that that alliance 70, 80 years old could be over.
I suppose the question is about whether or not that is up to voters in Europe in terms of their elected leaders.
Also, Belgium is a big customer in terms of US defence material, notably F-35 jets.
Are you concerned or do you have any views about this business potentially going to European defence companies in the future?
Obviously, the EU guidelines are focused on prioritising European companies.

US President Donald Trump has raised the prospect of military strikes on Iran as activists say that thousands of people have been killed in the wave of protests in the country.
The Human Rights Activist News Agency estimates at least 2,000 people have died, while the Oslo-based Iran Human Rights Group says the figure could be as high as 6,000.
They say that a lack of internet access is making independent verification extremely difficult.
Speaking to reporters before boarding Air Force One, President Trump said the death toll would be a key factor in determining his response.
Donald Trump had earlier urged Iranians to continue their protests, writing on social media that, quote, help is on its way.
The comments come days after a White House official said that President Trump had been briefed on options for an attack with the president yesterday, also encouraging U.S.
citizens and people from allied countries to leave Iran.
The head of America's largest bank has warned against undermining the Federal Reserve, earning him a rebuke from Donald Trump.
