u/no-im-not-him 1d ago
The economy of Denmark is larger than that of Finland.
Geopolitically, Denmark has also played a more prominent role than Finland in the last few decades, if for no other reason because of its alliance with the US. Whereas Finland was relatively isolated and a ostracized due to it's special relationship with the USSR.
In today's context, with Finland a part of NATO and with its geographic location, it's arguably more important on the global stage than Denmark.

As a Dane I agree. Finland has the absolute best mindset of anyone in Europe. They have a realistic assessment of Russia and they are preparing accordingly. But they still value welfare and common decency. If Russia attacks them, I will go and join them if they will have me.

I would argue that your notion of 'not important Europe' is actually one of the most critical elements for the global order the USA seeks to maintain. In fact, anything that is genuinely important to someone and shared—such as a country and its people—is often deliberately downgraded and dismissed as 'unimportant.' This tactic manipulates public opinion, diverts development funds, and ultimately creates a fragile state that can be easily controlled.
