According to TV2, the city of Nuuk witnessed a historic event yesterday, Monday, with the arrival of the German supply ship \u201cBerlin\u201d, marking the first time a ship from the German Navy has docked in Greenland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This warship is the largest in the German fleet, measuring approximately 175 meters in length. It contains millions of liters of fuel, a floating hospital, and two helicopters dedicated to transport and rescue missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The visit comes ahead of the ship's participation in military exercises in the Arctic, but in the view of the Danish government it represents a very important political signal reflecting the growing interest and support of European countries for Denmark in Greenland, according to the source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Statements by the Danish Defense Minister<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen, who arrived in Nuuk to welcome the ship, said that this presence is \u201ca sign of solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark, as Germany also wants to show its presence in the region.\u201d He stressed that the move comes as a follow-up to French President Emmanuel Macron\u2019s visit last June, emphasizing that \u201cEuropean interest in Greenland is growing significantly.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n German Deputy Defense Minister Dr. Nils Schmid is scheduled to arrive in Nuuk for meetings with Poulsen and Greenlandic Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A clear message from the German leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Marc Phillip, the commander of the German ship's aviation unit, explained that their presence in Nuuk sends a clear message, saying: "We are together, and that's what we're showing here. In our time, it's important that alliances remain strong and able to work together," according to the source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Concern among local residents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the military parade, the ship received visitors from the residents of Nuuk, whose opinions were divided between welcoming and concerned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to TV2, law student Anne Frandsen expressed her concerns, saying: \u201cI am worried about the future with everything that is being said about Donald Trump.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Communications technician Kristian Fleischer expressed mixed feelings: \u201cOn the one hand, I feel that they are protecting us, but on the other hand, the presence of more of these ships could put us at the heart of the conflict, and that could be dangerous,\u201d according to the source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Increasing pressure from the United States and Russia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to TV2, the Danish government is seeking to increase European military visits and exercises in Greenland as part of a strategy initiated at the beginning of the year. This comes after statements by former US President Donald Trump, who reiterated his demand for American control over Greenland, telling NBC News last March: \u201cWe will have Greenland, yes, 100 percent. There is a good chance we can do it without using military force, but I don\u2019t rule anything out.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, Denmark is concerned about Russia\u2019s growing expansion in the Arctic, where Moscow is expanding its military bases, building more icebreakers, and operating nuclear submarines along Greenland\u2019s east coast to reach the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A shift in Danish strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen indicated that the era of a \u201clow profile\u201d in Greenland is over, saying: \u201cWe want to show a greater presence than before, both through exercises and investments.\u201d He added: \u201cWhen I took office two years ago, we were talking about Greenland as a low-tension zone, but no one uses that description anymore after the war in Ukraine and the escalating Russian role.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the summer, Greenland hosted a series of military exercises involving French frigates and high-level official visits, and now the visit of the German ship \u201cBerlin\u201d comes as part of a broader German plan to strengthen the military presence in the Arctic region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anticipated defense investments in the Arctic<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Danish government plans to launch a new investment package next month as part of the \u201cArctic Package,\u201d which includes strengthening surveillance capabilities, establishing facilities to support fighter jets, and increasing the number of ships dedicated to operations in Greenland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, the military presence in Greenland is shifting from focusing on civilian rescue operations, as it was previously, to becoming a key pillar of European defense strategy in the face of escalating American and Russian pressure.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u0648\u0641\u0642\u0627\u064b \u0644\u0645\u0648\u0642\u0639 TV2\u060c \u0634\u0647\u062f\u062a \u0645\u062f\u064a\u0646\u0629
