Two US Military Bases to Open as Greenland Agreement Signing Awaited
The United States, Denmark and Greenland are expected to sign an agreement on Tuesday resolving the dispute over Greenland, according to a US official. The agreement includes reopening a former Cold War military base in southern Greenland and a military presence at a base on the east coast used by Danish dog-sled patrols. The text has not been published, and Denmark says it places Arctic security under NATO.
Why it matters: This matters for Arctic security, as the agreement shifts oversight of the region to NATO.
