In a frantic last-ditch effort to avert a military clash between NATO allies, high-level officials from Denmark and Greenland have agreed to an emergency summit with the United States in Washington, D.C. this Wednesday. The meeting comes less than 24 hours after Denmark threatened to shoot down American aircraft using NASAMS air defense systems, marking the most dangerous diplomatic standoff in the alliance’s history.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen will reportedly lead the delegation, aiming to de-escalate tensions while maintaining strict opposition to the sale of the Arctic territory. However, insiders suggest the White House views this not as a negotiation, but as a summoning to deliver a final ultimatum: allow the construction of the “Freedom City” corporate zone or face unilateral annexation under the guise of national security.
The inclusion of Greenlandic officials is critical. It implies that the indigenous government is being brought to the table to potentially cut a deal directly with the U.S., bypassing Copenhagen entirely if the financial incentives—funded by the Silicon Valley consortium—are high enough.
