The assessment is one of the strongest warnings about the U.S. to come from a European intelligence service. In October, the Dutch spies said they had stopped sharing some intelligence with their U.S. counterparts, citing political interference and human rights concerns.

The Danish warning underscores European unease as Washington leverages industrial policy more aggressively on the global stage, and highlights the widening divide between the allies, with the U.S. National Security Strategy stating that Europe will face the "prospect of civilizational erasure" within the next 20 years.

The Danish report also said that "there is uncertainty about how China-U.S. relations will develop in the coming years" as Beijing’s rapid rise has eroded the U.S.'s long-held position as the undisputed global power.

Washington and Beijing are now locked in a contest for influence, alliances and critical resources, which has meant the U.S. has "significantly prioritized" the geographical area around it — including the Arctic — to reduce China's influence.

"The USA's increasingly strong focus on the Pacific Ocean is also creating uncertainty about the country's role as the primary guarantor of security in Europe," the report said. "The USA's changed policy places great demands on armaments and cooperation between European countries to strengthen deterrence against Russia."

In the worst-case scenario, the Danish intelligence services predict that Western countries could find themselves in a situation in a few years where both Russia and China are ready to fight their own regional wars in the Baltic Sea region and the Taiwan Strait, respectively.

Honestly surprised it took them that long.

Most countries don't wanna have their intelligence leaked through a Signal Chat or directly shared with Russia.
