A fewer days ago, Berlin announced that due to the announcements of Greenland's annexation by the United States, it would send Bundeswehr soldiers to it. As it turned out, the mission rapidly accomplished ended equally fast return of troops to the continent. The German military emphasises that participation in the Arctic Endurance operation was part of the “European cooperation for Arctic security”. This is interesting, given that both the US and Denmark, to which Greenland belongs, are in the same military alliance – NATO.
The end of the German “blitzkrieg” in Greenland. 15 Bundeswehr soldiers arrived in Greenland on Friday as part of a reconnaissance mission of European countries organised by Denmark. The Arctic Endurance mission was presented in Germany as a informing signal to the US about Europe's readiness, including Germany, to guarantee Greenland's safety. However, it ended on Sunday, which was alternatively embarrassing for the European effort to defend the island.
The fact that Berlin will send a twelve soldiers to Greenland informed the spokesperson of the German government on Wednesday. On Saturday, German media disinformation that the military group would stay on the island longer. erstwhile it came out that the mission was actually to last only 3 days, “Bild” wrote that... everything had gone as planned, and the results of the reconnaissance would be “examined in the coming days.” According to the newspaper, the timing of the mission was changed due to... weather conditions. This is, of course, a disgrace, due to the fact that it is not hard to know that Greenland, especially in winter, is very cold.
The German operation occurred in the repeated threats of US president Donald Trump regarding the possible armed takeover of Greenland by the United States. On Saturday, the U.S. leader announced that as of 1 February he would impose 10% duties on countries that sent tiny groups of soldiers to Greenland. specified duties are expected to increase to 25% in June and apply until the US enters into an agreement to acquisition the island.
An extraordinary gathering of associate States' ambassadors to the EU was held in Brussels on Sunday afternoon. The gathering was classified and afraid Trump's threats to criminal duties. Previously, on Wednesday, Danish public tv DR reported that Copenhagen had decided to increase its military presence in Greenland due to threats of takeover by the US. Sweden, Germany, Norway and France declared participation in the island cover operation. The Danish Ministry of Defence expressed the hope that further NATO states would join the maneuvers.
As we can see, the Germans have had adequate of these maneuvers. They gave up on them rather rapidly erstwhile they realized the conditions in which they function. possibly the French will be more frost-resistant. The angry claim that the German “blitzkrieg” in Greenland was at least longer than the presidency of Rafał Trzaskowski. Unfortunately, the issue is besides about Poland. We have a fewer fools in the country who have lost their chance to stay silent and started asking questions about why our country would not take part in defending Greenland.
GERMAN BLITZKRIEG IN GREENLAND:
1) January 16, German soldiers arrived in Greenland.
2) January 17, Trump impossed additional tariffs on Germany.
3) January 18, German soldiers departed from Greenland.
