H.R. 7192: Hands Off Greenland Act
The bill, titled the "Hands Off Greenland Act," intends to restrict the United States government from deploying or assigning any troops to Greenland unless it receives a direct invitation from the Kingdom of Denmark. This means that from the date the bill becomes law, the President would not be able to send U.S. Armed Forces to Greenland for any military duty without that explicit permission from Denmark. Additionally, the bill stipulates that after its enactment, federal funds cannot be used for such deployments unless they are in response to an invitation from Denmark. The primary focus of this legislation is to establish clear limitations on military presence in Greenland, ensuring that such actions are conducted only with the consent of Denmark, which is the ruling authority over Greenland. The bill seeks to solidify the relationship between the U.S. and Denmark regarding military matters in the Greenland region, potentially reducing unilateral military actions by the U.S. in that area.
