US and European Allies Vie for Influence Over Island's Defense Role
The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is deploying aircraft to Pituffik Space Base in Greenland as part of long-planned activities, operating alongside assets based in the US and Canada. The move comes as the US and European allies quietly compete for influence over Greenland’s security role in the Arctic. The deployment has been coordinated with the Kingdom of Denmark and the Government of Greenland, with all supporting forces operating with necessary diplomatic clearances.
