US to Reopen Cold War Base in Greenland Under Pending Deal, Sources Say

The return of US military infrastructure to Greenland puts the Arctic back at the centre of great-power positioning, and it matters because the arrangement is being formalised through a trilateral agreement rather than asserted unilaterally — a signal that Copenhagen and Nuuk are willing participants, at least on paper. For markets, the read-through is less about Greenland itself than about Arctic logistics, rare-earth and critical-mineral access, and the shipping routes that a more militarised north implies. Whether the deal is actually signed, and how Greenland's own government frames the trade-offs, is the open question.
