In the context of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, on September 22, a decisive strategic victory was consolidated for the leadership of United States and the stability of the free world. President Donald Trump, along with the Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, and the Prime Minister of Greenland, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, signed the historic security pact that grants Washington permanent control over the security of the strategic territory in the Arctic and the North Atlantic.
The absolute focus of this military deployment lies in the fact that United States will immediately begin the construction of two strategic military bases at key geographical points in Greenland. Donald Trump confirmed this before the UN forum: "We will immediately begin the process of developing a large military presence in the appropriate locations", specifying the creation of "two very important military bases".
The plan authorizes the establishment of defense areas at the following key sites:
Narsarsuaq: Located at the southern tip of Greenland. This point housed the U.S. military installation Bluie West One during the Cold War, which ceased operations in the 1950s. The construction of a new military base in this area recovers an essential surveillance position in the North Atlantic.
Mestersvig: Situated on the eastern coast of Greenland. In this remote region, the Sirius Patrol, a specialized Danish military surveillance unit, currently operates. The new defense installation of United States will ensure strict protection over the maritime routes and resources of the Arctic Ocean.
Along with the construction of the two new military fortresses, the pact provides for the expansion and modernization of the capabilities of the Pituffik Space Base. Located in the northwest of the island, Pituffik has so far represented the only active military installation of Washington in Greenland following the reduction of presence that occurred since the 20th century. It carries out vital tasks of alert and missile defense, space surveillance, and strategic missions for NATO.
