Denmark was reportedly prepared to blow up airfields to stop a U.S. invasion of Greenland, according to a New York Times report cited by Open Source Intel.
Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory in the Arctic, hosts strategic facilities and would be a focal point in any regional confrontation. The NYT article describes such a drastic option as part of Danish defense planning aimed at deterring an invasion.
Danish officials did not provide immediate comment on the report. The assertions underscore the high-stakes security considerations surrounding Greenland’s strategic position.
