Greenland Is Not Optional: Arctic Power, Missile Defense, and U.S. National Will

To counter a growing campaign of Arctic disinformation, this brief report addresses how manufactured narratives surrounding Greenland’s status, sovereignty, and Western intent are being used to weaken strategic clarity and national will. Framed as moral critique or anti-colonial concern, these narratives deliberately obscure the legal, historical, and security realities governing Greenland while shielding hostile actors seeking to expand influence in the High North.

Arctic stability depends on law, consent, and strategy—not distortion. Greenland’s relationship with Denmark, the presence of U.S. and NATO security infrastructure, and Western engagement in the Arctic are grounded in treaty law, mutual defense, and the explicit consent of governing authorities. By erasing this context and recasting lawful defense posture as exploitation, adversarial information campaigns seek to fracture alliances, delegitimize deterrence, and create strategic vacuums exploitable by Russia and China. This report restores factual and legal clarity, exposing how Greenland is being repurposed as a narrative weapon in a broader effort to degrade Western resolve.
