NATO state’s citizens increasingly see US as a ‘threat’ – poll — RT World News

Almost half of Danes surveyed consider the US a “threat” to their country, a YouGov poll has suggested.

The survey, the results of which were published by the Guardian on Friday, had been carried out amid growing tensions between Copenhagen and Washington in recent weeks over US President Donald Trump’s plans to make Greenland, an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, part of America.

According to the poll, 46% of Danes consider the US to be either “a very big threat” or “a fairly big threat.”

The figure suggests that people living in the NATO and EU member state are more concerned about the US than they are about North Korea or Iran, which have been deemed a threat by 44% and 40%, respectively.

However, Russia continues to top the list of the fears of the Danish public, with 86% of those surveyed calling it a danger to their country.
