Last update: 4 hours agoUS Military Plans: The Pentagon is assessing airfields at Narsarsuaq and Mestersvig for expanded Arctic operations, alongside upgrades to Pituffik Space Base, with an initial capability targeted for 2027. The plans follow a Denmark-Greenland-US security agreement that preserves the kingdom’s sovereignty and Greenlanders’ right to self-determination. EU Arctic Strategy: Brussels is putting security, maritime surveillance, undersea cables and icebreakers at the center of its new policy. It still urges Arctic fossil fuels to stay in the ground, but dropped its previous call for a binding international ban on new drilling. Greenland’s Resources: Greenland’s parliament unanimously rejected deep-sea mineral extraction, a notable limit on resource development as strategic competition in the Arctic grows. High North Readiness: A UK defence report, informed by visits to Greenland and other Nordic countries, warns Britain lacks key capabilities to operate in the region and urges faster action to address military gaps.
