The NATO alliance is facing unprecedented strain following President Trump’s aggressive push to acquire Greenland from Denmark, which has escalated into a major geopolitical flashpoint. But why has Greenland become such a central focus in global security, and what does this moment reveal about the future of transatlantic relations?
Join GDN for a timely, expert-led session that unpacks the strategic stakes behind Greenland’s growing importance, from Arctic security and military positioning to resources, sovereignty, and great-power competition. The panel will examine how European governments may respond to U.S. pressure tactics, including targeted tariffs, and what these tensions mean for alliance cohesion, credibility, and leverage going forward. YPOers will have the opportunity to assess the risk of escalation, including the prospects of confrontation, and explore the broader implications for NATO’s future and the international order. A moderated Q&A will follow this event.
By attending this session, you will:
• Assess risks to Arctic stability, military security, and the future of the international order.
• Understand the strategic geography, security relevance, and resources driving this flashpoint.
• Explore how allies may react to tariffs and political pressure—and what it means for alliance credibility.
Comprehend the flashpoint that is shaping the next era of transatlantic power.
