This would seem to be the UK, together with France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland and Denmark making a strong joint statement on Greenland against Trump on 6 January.

Andy Beckett today:
some belatedly tough words from Starmer about Greenland on Wednesday
And BTL in response to someone calling him out.
You're right, Starmer did stand up to Trump effectively over Greenland on Wednesday. But the fact that's so noteworthy is because it has happened so rarely. He has been much slower to criticise Trump than Macron, Carney etc..

Andy Beckett has been around long enough to do better than this.

He's an able writer, but he's decided to chase the easy clicks of "Starmer-establishment-loves America-Europe is standing up to Trump". Beckett at least doesn't crowbar in Brexit to this analysis, which others do.
