Greenland Gambit: US Strategy, Arctic Security, and the Future of NATO

In this paper we discuss: 

• The renewed US push for Greenland and rising transatlantic tensions over Arctic security;
• Trump’s Davos “framework” shifting from coercion to negotiation without abandoning strategic aims;
• European concerns in Munich, framing Greenland as a test of NATO unity;
• A likely outcome of expanded defence cooperation rather than sovereignty transfer;
• Broader implications for NATO cohesion and Europe’s strategic autonomy debate.
