Jan 11 (Reuters) – A ‌group ​of European ‌countries, led by Britain ​and Germany, is discussing ‍plans to boost ​their military ​presence ⁠in Greenland to show U.S. President Donald Trump that the continent is serious about ‌Arctic security, Bloomberg News reported ​on Sunday.

Germany ‌will propose ‍setting up ⁠a joint NATO mission to protect the Arctic region, the Bloomberg report added, citing people familiar ​with the plans.

Trump said on Friday that the U.S. needs to own Greenland to prevent Russia or China from occupying it in the future. He has repeatedly said that ​Russian and Chinese vessels are operating near Greenland, something Nordic countries have ​rejected.
