U.S. Greenland Visit Scaled Back to Military Base Amid Diplomatic Strains
Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance will now visit the Pituffik Space Base, avoiding populated areas after backlash from Greenland and Denmark.
- The U.S. delegation, originally set to visit Greenlandic cultural sites, has revised its itinerary to focus solely on the Pituffik Space Base on March 28, 2025.
- Greenland and Denmark criticized the visit as 'unacceptable pressure,' with no official invitation extended by Greenlandic authorities.
- The itinerary change is seen as a de-escalation, reducing the likelihood of confrontations with protesters opposing U.S. annexation efforts.
- Vice President JD Vance stated the visit aims to address Arctic security concerns, citing threats from other nations to Greenland and North America.
- Greenland remains without a government following recent elections, with ongoing coalition negotiations adding to the diplomatic sensitivity of the visit.
