AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoGreenland-US Push: US special envoy Jeff Landry wrapped his first visit to Nuuk by telling AFP it’s “time for the US to put its footprint back on Greenland,” arguing Washington should “repopulate” bases and rebuild presence after the Cold War drawdown to just Pituffik. He also floated Greenland independence as “economically” possible—while Greenland leaders keep repeating their “red lines” and “not for sale” stance. Local Reception: Landry’s outreach landed badly, with reports of locals shouting “go home,” rejecting MAGA hats, and a child refusing a photo. EU Arctic Strategy: The EU is framing this as the “decade of the Arctic,” accelerating its role amid US-Russia-China rivalry and Greenland tensions. Broader Pressure: At the same time, the US is signaling less help for NATO crises in Europe, and the EU-US tariff deal moves forward to dodge fresh trade shocks.
