The United States will build two major military bases in Greenland, President Donald Trump said on Sept. 22.
Trump made this announcement during his address to the United Nations General Assembly.
“No U.S. adversary will ever be permitted to establish a military presence in Greenland anymore, or make sensitive investments there without our express written approval,” he said. “We will immediately begin the process of developing a large military presence in the appropriate locations. We will be building two very major military bases.”
Trump said that the agreement will be signed later Tuesday.
