USA asks Denmark for help in the egg crisis | Sweden Herald

They should meet with a US delegation to negotiate, and give them one single egg.
These are trying times.

I'm just glad that howtobasic isn't American.

California would probably agree to being part of Denmark as well. Let's do this!

Only if California joins the EU, too.

This is classic America. I don't have evidence for this but I have to assume that a large part of why America is having a egg crisis and other nations aren't is because of the absolutely horrendous and unsanitary conditions of our factory farms. Rather than look around the world and see that better living conditions contribute to a higher quality product, better lives for the animals, and lowered risk of massive disease outbreaks (which could become a human pandemic by the way); we'd rather ship in perishable goods from countries who have already figured that out. Our insane thirst for quarterly earnings reports prevents us from even considering something that would be a long term sustainable solution because it would be ever so slightly more expensive up front
America's unstoppable thirst for short-term profit is why they currently have a corporate-backed fascist in office that is threatening to invade US's (supposed) allies to pillage their resources and economies.
Whether they do or not, the US as we have known it is in its death throes. They have surrendered nearly all of their soft power and made themselves a trade pariah. Entire industries are going to crumble as megacorps swoop in like vultures to devour the carcasses as the walls of their economy close in and the whole building collapses. It is in everyone's best interest to move their interests and money as far away from the US as possible.

Aren't the US and EU standards on how to produce and sell eggs so incompatible that it's illegal to import eggs from the EU into the US?
I've always heard that but our eggs in Denmark are all refrigerated in the stores

I think Trump wants control of trade routes (specifically, the Northwest Passage). That also explains why he's going after the Panama Canal at the same time.
“ Panama is a key partner in the implementation and enforcement of sanctions on entities and individuals designated by U.S. and UN sanctions regimes, including sanctions relating to Cuba, Iran, Nicaragua, North Korea, Russia, Syria, and Venezuela.”

Only if he wears a suit and says "thank you" to the Danish prime minister.
And surrenders Solvang to the Danish crown.

Denmark sees quantities being asked “how much food do you duckers eat?”. I hope they decline. (From a US citizen)
Denmark has a quiet word with Novo Nordisk to, uh, 'modify' the appetite-suppressing efficacy of Ozempic/Wegovy, increasing demand for Danish eggs, butter cookies and bacon, and augmenting Denmark's bargaining position.

Greenland houses some key NATO sites that monitor the arctic. These are mostly used to make sure Russia stays in Russia.
The other non-Russian factor that I don't see people discussing is climate change. The northern areas are going to become more habitable and having Greenland and Canada means the US population has somewhere to go. This is the motivation for a lot of things they aren't talking about because it is evil.
You can choose which evil is motivating them I believe it's both.
I have considered that USA would have to migrate North. To plan for it while denying that anything is wrong is true evil.

That was from before we decided to install a dictator and become a rogue state.

Yes, but it explains why Panama is a US target now

Hmm... maybe. I'm not sure if "key partner" is actually as special as it sounds, or if it's just puffery. It could be that a bunch of countries are "key partners" and it just happened to get mentioned in Panama's report because the writer couldn't think of something more specific to say. It would be more persuasive if we had the whole list of "key partners" and could show that the US is targeting all of them preferentially compared to countries with less cooperative status.

Guys please don’t give them any eggs lol

Panama’s sanctions make world wide shipping much harder for Russians

I genuinely wonder if California would qualify.

Should meet with the US delegation dressed as an egg, refuse to collaborate and just devolve into chicken noises imo o7
