Right now? This whole thing is too useful for generating nationalist sentiments in Europe.

They might certainly try, but this is already a defeated nationalism. Russia will wreck Ukraine this year - they already have - and it will be a huge disaster for Europe. One for the history books for sure.

At the same time, Trump might take Greenland, there's certainly no stopping him if he really went for it - sanctions, troops, nukes, won't matter. Europe will get a nationalism born out of defeat, with half the world laughing at them for years (not that they haven't earned it!).

This can't be good.

No it won't be good. Defeated nationalisms in colonial countries are always a breeding ground for fascism.
