Denmark Grants Expanded US Military Access Amid Greenland Tensions
Denmark Grants Expanded US Military Access Amid Greenland Tensions
The Danish Parliament approved legislation expanding US military access to Danish airbases. This builds upon a 2023 agreement, granting broader operational capabilities to US forces.
The move comes amidst ongoing US interest in Greenland, previously expressed by President Trump. While the legislation allows for increased US presence, Danish officials maintain the right to terminate the agreement should the US attempt to annex any part of Greenland.
The vote passed 94-11, signifying significant parliamentary support. Greenland’s government has previously denounced US assertions of ownership as disrespectful.
The legislation now awaits royal assent, effectively formalizing expanded US military operational freedom within Denmark.
