Denmark dispatched soldiers and explosives to Greenland in January as part of a contingency plan to obliterate key runways if the United States attempted an invasion, the country’s public broadcaster has reported.
The strategy, which focused on landing strips in Nuuk and Kangerlussuaq, was designed to prevent U.S. military aircraft from landing troops and equipment. Danish blood banks even flew in supplies to treat potential casualties.
The mobilization came amid President Donald Trump’s ongoing campaign to annex Greenland. He has threatened to seize the semi autonomous Danish territory by force, arguing that American ownership is vital for national and international security — a stance that appalls officials in Denmark and Greenland, and which the public in each place also firmly oppose.
