Reference News Network, January 20 report. According to the German "Handelsblatt" website's January 19 report, the Danish government is continuing to reinforce its military presence in Greenland to strengthen its military power on the island. The Danish Broadcasting Corporation reported this based on information from the Danish Ministry of Defense.
The report said that among those sent for reinforcement is a senior officer, Peter Boisen, the Chief of the Danish Army.
The Danish Broadcasting Corporation stated that although the Danish Ministry of Defense did not disclose how many soldiers were stationed in the western city of Søndre Strømfrue in Greenland, the reinforcing forces will "significantly strengthen" the local military strength.
After U.S. President Trump announced that he would impose tariffs on countries that had sent troops to Greenland in recent days, Denmark immediately reinforced its military presence on the island. In addition to Denmark and Germany, six other countries were also threatened by Trump.
Recently, when interviewed, Trump refused to answer whether he would order the use of force to seize Greenland. He said that Europe should focus on the Russia-Ukraine conflict rather than Greenland. (Translated by Wang Qing)
