The Pentagon is negotiating with Denmark for access to 3 bases in Greenland

According to a report by the New York Times, the Pentagon is negotiating with Denmark to gain access to three additional bases in Greenland, including two previously abandoned by the Americans. This move would mark the first US military expansion on the island in decades.

According to the New York Times report, military planners are eyeing the towns of Narsarsuaq in southern Greenland, which offers a deep-water port, and Kangerlussuaq in the southwest of the island, where there is already a long runway capable of receiving large aircraft. Both locations served as American bases during World War II and the Cold War.

While General Gilliot claims that the talks are being conducted calmly and without objections, experts point out that Denmark and Greenland cannot really refuse the United States due to the balance of power. Meanwhile, Greenlanders are beginning to express their concern.
