Northern Lights Flashing: The Case for U.S. Security Governance of Greenland
The U.S. is in desperate need of an Arctic security strategy, and the media noise over the details of a Greenland “annexation” is disingenuous to the real security concerns facing not only the U.S. but also the wider Western Hemisphere and the transatlantic relationship. Greenland is more than an island of ice, polar winds, and rocks; it is a vital link in Arctic security for friends and foes alike. Security governance for Greenland—particularly that which is planned, overseen, and implemented by the U.S.—is integral to American missile radar awareness, the defense of the North Atlantic, and the holding of the line for the Western Hemisphere. Securing Greenland, in other words, is the first step toward blocking our adversaries’ ambitions in our northern neighborhood, parallel to the U.S. focus to the south.
