The United States military is negotiating with Denmark
for access to three additional bases in Greenland
— including two previously abandoned by Americans
— which would mark the first U.S. expansion there in decades, according to a top Pentagon general, Gen. Gregory M. Guillot.
General Guillot, the head of U.S. Northern Command,
told lawmakers in a congressional hearing in mid-March that the military wanted
“increased access to different bases across Greenland
as we look at the increasing threat and the strategic importance of Greenland.”
“I’m working with our department and others to try to develop more ports,
more airfields, which leads to more options for our secretary and for the president, should we need them up in the Arctic,” General Guillot added.
The Danish government has cited a 1951 Danish-American defense pact to push back against Trump’s threats,
noting that the U.S. already has sweeping military access.
American officials are now using that same agreement to map out plans for their expansion.
Scholars say there is little Denmark can do to block them,
even if the trust between the United States and Denmark has been broken.
In January, the Danes even laid plans to blow up airfields in Greenland to stop an American invasion,
which might lead them to be uncomfortable now with any increase in American troops.
Lt. Comdr. Teresa C. Meadows,
a spokeswoman for the Americans’ Northern Command,
said that military planners were eyeing the towns of
#Narsarsuaq, in southern Greenland, which offers a deepwater port,
and #Kangerlussuaq in southwestern Greenland,
which already has a long runway capable of handling large aircraft.

Parmi les arrivants, on trouve le chef d'état-major de l'armée, #Peter_Boysen. Auparavant, environ 100 soldats étaient déjà arrivés à #Nuuk et autant à #Kangerlussuaq pour participer à l'exercice « Résilience arctique », accéléré en raison des récentes déclarations du président #Américain.
A larger number of Danish combat soldiers, described as "a substantial contribution", are expected to arrive in #Kangerlussuaq, Greenland, on Monday evening.

If Greenland wants more visitors, it must fix its airports.
When the ribbon on Nuuk’s expanded runway was cut last winter, the message was clear: Greenland is open for business.
The reality has been less triumphant.

On ground in #Greenland. Refueling in #Kangerlussuaq …
this once was a major US airbase in WW2 & Cold War.
Three of four #USAF Reserve LC-130s are here right now parked at Denmark’s Arctic Command terminal. They’re from the NY ANG’s 109th air wing at Stewart near Poughkeepsie. They routinely supporting research crews and projects for the National Science Foundation.
Temp: 21F (-6)
We're seeing plenty of dirty #icebergs near the mouth of #Kangerlussuaq Fjord on the #KangGlac research cruise aboard ##RRSSirDavidAttenborough. It's not hard to see how the ice-rafted debris commonly found in continental shelf and slope sediment cores gets there.
The TRANSAT mission will be the first attempt of #CNES to perform a controlled (*) Transatlantic balloon flight. The power will be obtained by a solar panel system to be unfolded during the flight and with its own solar pointing system.
Two relay stations will maintain the link with the balloon: in #Esrange and in #Kangerlussuaq, Greenland.
