The country will assign $ 12 billion for the Arctic and the North Atlantic

The government of Denmark has announced 14.6 billion in crowns, equivalent to $ 12 billion, to strengthen safety in the Arctic and the Atlantic of the North, among the threats of the President of the United States Donald Trump, to take Greenland.

According to the Danish defense minister Troels Lund Poulsen, the “threat level” in the region “has increased”. “We must significantly strengthen the defensive presence in these areas,” he added.

The plan was shared with the main political parties of the country and developed in “close collaboration” with the authorities of Greenland and the Faroe Islands, Danish self -employed territories in the North Atlantic.

“The acquisition of new arctic ships is a key priority. They are very important for the safety of the Greenlanders,” said the external relationships of the island, Vivian Motzfeldt.

Trump says that Greenland, located between Iceland and the United States, is important for the safety of the United States and the economy and has not excluded the strength to take the territory. .
