Startup CEO from Europe here. How am I supposed to turn a blind eye to the risk that the dependency from the US has become lately?

How is US dependency a risk?

How are you not aware that the US painted "we are no longer a reliable partner" all above the sky?

We will get Greenland one way or another. That's a horrid statement if you are Danish (and worse if you live on that island). Realistically it's a horrid statement, anyways.

From a UK perspective (and I'm not a CEO or anything) it looks pretty volatile over there. Tariffs, radical changes to government funding, widespread corporate overhauls... . Predictability is surely desirable when considering dependencies.

If you depend on the US for defense, and the USA says that the victim should just surrender, there's a risk the same might happen to you. It's quite black and white in this case.

Tariffs, threatening the sovereignty of its neighbours, etc.
