American Arctic match
The anger of Greenland residents due Usha Vance There is no mirror of the planned dog with dogs. With her husband Vice President JD Vanceom They only had a visit to the US military base on the agenda. Shortly before that is the Russian president Vladimir Putin By talking about his regional interests, he paid new relationships in the far north of the world.
US President Donald Trump He repeats that Greenland must be American. An autonomous landscape under the Danish crown should be needed for international security. « We need it, we have to have one and we will have it. » She did not rule out military force. The Greenlands of the High Republicans do not want to see the dog’s harness. About 57,000 inhabitants of the largest island in the world, largely Eskimo (inuit), may not really like the crown of the former Colonial Mistress Denmark, but want independence.
The president’s message was repeated by JD Vance: “The mission is really important. Trump’s administration is truly interested in the security of the Arctic. It is a big thing and will only be even greater in the coming decades. ”Trump has promised the Arctic Island, which is now largely received by Danish subsidies, with a fortune by starting the acquisition of fossil fuels, rare minerals and other natural resources. However, despite the President’s emphasis on American grandeur, the United States is not what they used to do, the case of US decline is Vice President of JD Vance, who came to his wife’s wife to help against a possible unpleasant diplomatic experience. Rumors are heard that American diplomacy did not find the inhabitants of Greenland who would be willing to meet her, so the second couple only went to the US military base of Pituffik, translated ‘the place where the dogs’ are tethered.

Former Marin Vance grew up in poverty with his mother, depending on drugs, which he described in the hit Farmers’ mourning. Many US misery republics blame others and perhaps the vice -president is also considered an even larger nationalist than President Trump, as well as an opponent of rescue Europe on the shoulders of US soldiers and money. Trump cites the exploitation of the Western superpower so far as a reason for the existence of the European Union and has announced an utterance with high customs duties on all of the US exports for 2 April. The old continent is also expected to continue unpleasant diplomatic surprises, as it seems that the first Republican with Russian President Putin is not only seeking cooperation in the end of the Ukrainian war, but also in the Arctic.
Without opposition to the acquisition
Just before Vance’s visit, the Russian champion appeared by emphasizing his own interests in the far north of the world, among which there was no opposition to the American takeover of Greenland. Russia, who is most trained in the far north, wants to approve most of the cake. In his last appearance, Putin spoke about possible cooperation with friendly countries, « perhaps including the western ». So far, he preferred to work with China, who is an observer in the Arctic world after a surprising key. New navigation routes in the far north are expected to be drastically shortened by global trade, and there is also a large fossil and other natural wealth in the area.

The Danish autonomous landscape is strategically important for the United States. The Pituffik military base, formerly Thule, is used for radar and satellite recognition of a possible attack from Russia or from elsewhere. It was acquired by the United States after insurance of the island before the Nazi occupation during World War II, although immediately after the war President Harry Truman repeated the Želje from 1867 and 1910 after his purchase. Finally, Trump proposed this in the first term in the White House.
The largest island in the world is also part of the so -called Giuk gaps, named after Greenland, Iceland and the United Kingdom, where it then controls the Russian Navy shifts in the northern Atlantic. Russian and Chinese ships are already accusing the destruction of underwater cables essential for Western communications and logistics. Other members of the Arctic Council, such as Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Canada, would like their piece of cake when opening new navigations due to the warming of the atmosphere. Some other NATO members are already advocating a greater Alliance’s presence on the controversial island.

This could lead to new tensions in NATO, which Putin would look forward to. His friendship with the US president will not only be tested in the Arctic, but also in Ukraine, as some in the White House doubt his sincerity in accepting the peace proposal. Trump’s yesterday’s chirping about a very productive conversation with Canada’s representatives, which he treated much worse than Greenland, shows that he is unpredictable to both friends and opponents.
