Reports by DR claim Denmark prepared a contingency plan to counter a possible U.S. move on Greenland in January. Danish forces were reportedly ready to destroy key runways to block American aircraft, while medical supplies were pre-positioned for potential casualties. The plan followed repeated statements by Donald Trump about acquiring Greenland over Arctic security concerns. Backed by European allies including France and Germany, Denmark aimed to raise the cost of any intervention, before Trump later signaled a preference for negotiations over force.
