Canada Signals Arctic Unity With Planned Troop Deployment to Greenland

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney is considering sending soldiers to Greenland to take part in military exercises with NATO allies.

Canada is preparing to send a small group of soldiers to Greenland in a move aimed at reinforcing NATO unity with Denmark as Arctic tensions continue to rise.

The final decision is expected soon, with officials emphasizing that the mission is designed to strengthen cooperation rather than escalate tensions.
