What happened
The United States announced a policy shift on September 20, 2026, regarding Greenland. This policy grants the United States the complete ability to do what is necessary to secure and defend Greenland and the United States of America. Furthermore, the policy stipulates that no US adversary can establish a base, maintain a military presence, or make sensitive investments in Greenland without the express written approval of the United States.

Why it matters
The policy shift is viewed as a move to counter Chinese influence in the Arctic region. The move follows a period where Chinese foreign direct investment totaled hundreds of millions of dollars in Greenland, equating to roughly 11% of Greenland’s gross domestic product by 2017.
