France has requested NATO to conduct a military exercise in Greenland and is willing to participate, following statements from the President of the United States, Donald Trump, who reiterated his interest in annexing the Arctic island. Sources from the Élysée Palace stated that France will cooperate. Last week, eight European nations, including France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, deployed troop groups in Greenland, an autonomous territory that is part of Denmark. This deployment was part of an exercise led by Denmark, in collaboration with NATO allies, although without the direction of the Atlantic Alliance or the participation of the United States.
