NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte recently said a framework deal on Greenland reached with U.S. President Donald Trump would require NATO allies to strengthen Arctic security. While the Chinese communist regime has downplayed any competition with the United States over Greenland, China’s state-run media urged Europe to reduce its reliance on U.S. security guarantees.
Analysts told The Epoch Times that the core of U.S. security policy regarding Greenland has not changed, but there are other options to move forward with respect to Greenland and the Arctic region. They also warned that China is trying to drive a wedge between the United States and its allies, while actively expanding its influence in the region.
