NUUK, Greenland — German troops quietly packed up and left Greenland on Sunday — just two days after arriving for a highly publicized NATO military exercise requested by Denmark in response to President Trump’s threats to take control of the world’s largest island.
The abrupt departure raised eyebrows in Nuuk, where locals watched as uniformed German personnel boarded a commercial flight out of Greenland rather than a military transport.
Once on board, roughly half of the soldiers were seated in cushy business class seats.
