"Several officers from the Swedish Armed Forces are arriving in Greenland today, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson posted to X on Wednesday. They are part of a group from several allied countries. Together, they will prepare for upcoming elements within the framework of the Danish exercise Operation Arctic Endurance.
