Denmark Summons US Over Greenland SPYING-Trump Wants to RIP The Land of Resources
Denmark to Summon US Envoy Over Greenland SPYING Directive - Trump Says US Needs Greenland For Security
CIA, NSA and Defense Intelligence Agency ALL Included in Collection Emphasis Message
US Spying on Greenland to RIP Land of Resources Under False Pretences
The Guardian 8 MAY 2025
Denmark has said that it will summon the US ambassador to Copenhagen to respond to reports that US intelligence agencies have been ordered to increase espionage in Greenland.
The Danish foreign minister, Lars L?kke Rasmussen, said on Wednesday that he was concerned about the report in the Wall Street Journal, telling the Ritzau news agency: It worries me a lot, because we dont spy between friends.
Speaking on his way to a meeting in Warsaw, he added: I cant know if its true because its in a newspaper. But it doesnt seem to be strongly rejected by those who speak out. That worries me.
High ranking officials working under Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, issued the instruction to agency heads in a collection emphasis message, the Journal reported.
Such messages customarily help to set intelligence priorities and direct resources and attention to high interest targets.
The Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency were all included in the message. It told chiefs to study Greenlands independence movement and attitudes to American efforts to extract resources on the island, according to the Journal, citing two unnamed officials familiar with the matter.
Seasoned intelligence operatives say the Arctic island of about 56,000 inhabitants has not historically been a target of US espionage activity.
The move will further alarm Denmark, a US ally and NATO member, which has repeatedly vowed that the island is not available for sale or annexation. The country is planning to spend $1.5BIL to protect Greenland from Trump, which has autonomous status under Denmarks constitutional monarchy.
Trump, who has mused since his first presidency about the possibility of possessing Greenland, refused to rule out seizing the 836,000 sq mile territory by force in an interview with NBC that was broadcast last weekend.
I dont say Im going to do it, but I dont rule out anything, he said. We need Greenland very badly. Greenland is a very small amount of people, which we'll take care of, and we'll cherish them, and all of that. But we need that for international security.
The comments renewed a vow the unhinged president made in an address to a joint session of Congress in March, when he said:
'One way or the other, we?re going to get it'
