US Attack on Caracas Stokes Concerns of Future Greenland Takeover.
Recent US-led military action in Venezuela and the detention of its president have renewed unease regarding Washington's designs on the Arctic territory. Members of the ex-president's political movement have allegedly focused on the vast island following the events in the southern hemisphere.
Provocative Posts and Diplomatic Backlash
Only hours following the commencement of the Caracas operation, a prominent right-wing commentator, who is married to a high-ranking presidential adviser, shared a suggestive image. The picture showed Greenland draped with the stars and stripes, with the single-word caption: "COMING."
This blatant threat to absorb the mineral-rich region, which is a part of the NATO alliance, provoked swift and strong condemnation from Denmark's officials.
"We are strong partners and should continue to cooperate as such. US security is equally the Arctic's and Denmark’s security," stated the Danish ambassador to the United States. "The Kingdom of Denmark and the United States work together to ensure security in the North."
The ambassador additionally highlighted that the kingdom had substantially increased its military budget recently, allocating a large amount expressly for Arctic and North Atlantic security. "And yes, we demand full recognition for the sovereign borders of the Kingdom of Denmark," he emphasized.
Political Moves and Strategic Interests
The situation were additionally exacerbated by the recent appointment of a Southern governor as a representative to Greenland. The appointee had publicly expressed gratitude to the president, saying it was an "honour" to work in a volunteer capacity to "bring Greenland into the US."
Following the events in Venezuela, this representative commended the administration's actions, linking it to the wider "war on drugs."
Since returning to office, the American leader has consistently alarmed transatlantic allies with his expressed interest in Greenland. The territory is viewed as vitally strategic for national security and potential resource extraction. It currently hosts the most northerly US air base.
Refusing to Rule Out Force
In a notable television interview, the president refused to exclude the resorting to armed action to acquire Greenland. This stance comes amid intensifying global rivalry in the polar region. "I don't rule it out. I don't say I'm going to do it, but I don't rule out anything... We need Greenland very badly," he remarked.
He described Greenland as having a "very small amount of people, which we’ll look after, and we’ll cherish them... But we need that for international security."
Growing Tensions and Local Resistance
In response to this constant "drumbeat" of threats, Denmark's security agency took the extraordinary step last month of labelling the United States as a "security risk."
The leaders of Denmark and Greenland delivered a unified and stern statement: "We have said it very clearly before. Now we say it again... You must not take over other countries."
Surveys in Greenland shows a nuanced sentiment. While a overwhelming percentage of the territory's inhabitants seek independence from Denmark, there is also scant desire to join the United States. The island has had the legal right to seek sovereignty for over a decade.
Analyst View: A Credible Scenario?
Some experts are now re-evaluating the likelihood of such a move. One policy analyst focusing in military analysis conceded she had once dismissed the sabre-rattling but was "currently not so sure."
"Logistically, it would be feasible for the US to deploy a few hundred or a couple thousand troops on Greenland, and it's unclear to me which power could do anything about it," she observed.
