The White House says discussions are underway about strategies to bring Greenland into closer alignment with the United States — and officials acknowledge that the potential involvement of U.S. military resources remains among the options being reviewed.
In comments provided to Reuters, administration officials described Greenland as a key national security priority due to its strategic Arctic position and rising international competition in the region. The president, they said, views U.S. influence in the Arctic as essential to countering growing Russian and Chinese activity.
