It is no secret that Pres. Trump wants to annex Greenland for national security concerns. Not surprisingly Russia is concerned about the US intentions for the Arctic territory.
Second lady Usha Vance—accompanied by Trump’s national security adviser— will travel travel to the Arctic territory this week.
The visit comes amid escalating rhetoric from Vice President JD Vance, who accused Denmark of failing as a NATO ally and suggested increased U.S. “territorial interest” in Greenland for national security.
Greenlandic leaders, including current PM Múte B. Egede and likely successor Jens-Frederik Nielsen, expressed concern and frustration, warning of “American aggression” and viewing the visit as a demonstration of power rather than a cultural outreach.
Tensions stem from Trump’s long-standing interest in Greenland, bolstered by its strategic military base, rare-earth resources, and geographic position in the Arctic.
