Tripartite Pact Resumes Greenland US Base
The United States is working to strengthen its military presence in Greenland through a new agreement with Denmark and the island's government. The agreement includes reopening the southern Narsarsuaq base, which has been closed since the 1950s, and expanding activity in the Mestersvig area on the eastern coast. The trilateral pact is set to be signed today in New York on the sidelines of the United Nations meetings, amid uncertainty regarding its details, with Denmark emphasizing that the move shifts regional security under the NATO umbrella rather than a bilateral coordination with Washington. These measures come after pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump, who expressed interest in expanding America's influence in Greenland and did not rule out using military or economic tools to achieve this.
