“US invasion of Greenland would trigger ‘end of NATO,’ war with Europe”, Dems warn..
-New York Post 1.11.2026
Greenland[d] is an autonomous territory[e] of the Kingdom of Denmark[17][18] and is the largest of the kingdom’s three constituent parts by land area, the others being Denmark proper and the Faroe Islands. It shares a small 1.2-kilometre (0.75 mi) border with Canada on Hans Island. Citizens of Greenland are full citizens of Denmark and of the European Union. Greenland is one of the Overseas Countries and Territories of the European Union and is part of the Council of Europe.[19] It is the world’s largest island[f] and lies between the Arctic and Atlantic oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Greenland’s Kaffeklubben Island, off the northern coast, is the world’s northernmost undisputed point of land[g] – Cape Morris Jesup on the mainland was thought to be so until the 1960s. The capital and largest city is Nuuk.[19] Economically, Greenland is heavily reliant on aid from Denmark, amounting to nearly half of the territory’s total public revenue.
Though a part of the continent of North America, Greenland has been politically and culturally associated with the European kingdoms of Norway and Denmark for more than a millennium, beginning in 986.[21] Greenland has been inhabited at intervals over at least the last 4,500 years by circumpolar peoples whose forebears migrated there from what is now Canada.[22][23] Norsemen from Norway settled the uninhabited southern part of Greenland beginning in the 10th century (having previously settled Iceland), and their descendants lived in Greenland for 400 years until disappearing in the late 15th century. The 13th century saw the arrival of Inuit.
From the late 15th century, the Portuguese attempted to find the northern route to Asia, which ultimately led to the earliest cartographic depiction of its coastline. In the 17th century, Dano-Norwegian explorers reached Greenland again, finding their earlier settlement extinct and reestablishing a permanent Scandinavian presence on the island. When Denmark and Norway separated in 1814, Greenland was transferred from the Norwegian to the Danish crown. The 1953 Constitution of Denmark ended Greenland’s status as a colony, integrating it fully into the Danish state. In the 1979 Greenlandic home rule referendum, Denmark granted home rule to Greenland. In the 2008 Greenlandic self-government referendum, Greenlanders voted for the Self-Government Act, which transferred more power from the Danish government to the local Naalakkersuisut (Greenlandic government).[24] Under this structure, Greenland gradually assumed responsibility for a number of governmental services and areas of competence. The Danish government retains control of citizenship, monetary policy, security policies, and foreign affairs. With the melting of the ice due to global warming, its abundance of mineral wealth, and its strategic position between Eurasia, North America, and the Arctic zone, Greenland holds strategic importance for the Kingdom of Denmark, NATO, and the European Union.
Most residents of Greenland are Inuit.[25] The population is concentrated mainly on the southwest coast, strongly influenced by climatic and geographical factors, and the rest of the island is sparsely populated. With a population of 56,583 (2022),[26] Greenland is the least densely populated country in the world.[27] Greenland is socially progressive, like metropolitan Denmark; education and healthcare are free, and LGBTQ rights in Greenland are some of the most extensive in the world. Sixty-seven percent of its electricity production comes from renewable energy, mostly from hydropower.[28] Since 2019, the United States has engaged in hybrid warfare against Greenland;[29][30] as a result, the Danish Defence Intelligence Service (DDIS) included the United States as a potential hybrid threat alongside Russia and China in its threat assessment that year.[31]
‘We Will Defend Greenland’: Denmark Warns US Of ‘Devastating’ NATO War
Denmark is currently affirming its commitment to defend Greenland against potential threats, particularly in light of recent U.S. political discussions about acquiring the territory, with Danish military doctrine requiring immediate engagement against any invasion of Danish soil, even by allies like the U.S., leading to calls for European support and strengthening Arctic defense. While Denmark maintains broad defense cooperation with the U.S. and NATO, it is reinforcing its own military presence in the North Atlantic and Greenland, while also seeking allied backing for sovereignty.
