One tool they could use is an anti-coercion instrument:
Pressure is growing on European leaders to deploy its trade bazooka against the United States after President Donald Trump threatened fresh tariffs if Denmark does not agree to sell the territory of Greenland. In a scenario of coercion, the EU counts with a powerful tool in the anti-coertion instrument, and calls are intensifying for Brussels to trigger it.
Aaaand, we get much of our insulin from Denmark:
Denmark cannot match U.S. military power. But it does control a chokepoint the US cannot easily replace. Roughly 30–50 percent by volume—come from Denmark. That makes the U.S. effectively dependent on Danish production for a continuous, non‑substitutable supply. Millions of Americans need insulin every day, with no margin for interruption. Any shock from tariffs, supply‑chain disruption, or price spikes wouldn’t merely inconvenience patients. It risks clinical harm and a domestic political crisis in the US.
