Thousands of Danish veterans and supporters held a silent march to the US embassy in Copenhagen to protest US President Donald Trump's remarks downplaying the role of non‑US NATO troops in Afghanistan. Organizers estimated turnout between 8,000 and 10,000, while police reported at least 10,000 participants. Protesters gathered at Kastellet citadel for a brief ceremony at the monument to fallen soldiers, then marched about 1.5 kilometers to the embassy in subzero temperatures. Some marchers wore military uniforms and waved Danish flags. The demonstration took place amid heightened tensions over Trump's push to acquire Greenland.
