Threat to Greenland: Russia, Not Trump
Interest in Greenland's mineral potential has grown since Trump suggested buying the territory, home to many critical minerals.
Private Mads Hansen, one of three Danish soldiers stationed at Mestersvig, a former mining outpost on the desolate coast of eastern Greenland, acknowledges the challenges of the job.
"You get used to it,"
he said while showing off the base's snowplows, with a radio and handgun hanging from his belt. Hansen and his colleagues are preparing for an expanded military presence as part of a broader defensive build-up directed at Russia.
The Danish army is increasing its presence in Greenland to counter the Russian threat.
