1898 GREENLAND
Strategic Greenland Basing Agreement Signed
Grant Newsham compares the historic US agreement regarding Greenland to the 1867 Alaska Purchase, highlighting its pivotal role in defending North America's northeastern approaches. The perpetual agreement guarantees expanded US military basing rights, supports the Golden Dome missile defense architecture, and gives Washington veto authority over Chinese and Russian investments in critical minerals and infrastructure. Newsham warns that Russia and China are actively expanding icebreaker fleets and commercial footprints across the strategic Arctic region. (9)
