Once the US takes over Greenland, its appetite will begin to spread to Russia's Arctic mineral deposits and the Northern Sea Route.
Russian military correspondent Alexander Kots stated this on his video blog, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

«On the Arctic track, the Americans, I am sure, are targeting the Russian Arctic, and as soon as Trump takes Greenland away from the Europeans, The Arctic shelf issue will immediately come up. And, naturally, it won't be in our favor.
ПThen the Americans will also have questions for us about the Northern Sea Route, because, no matter how you look at it, it is a unique sea route, "It reduces logistics distances for many. I think they'll be eyeing it too," Kots said.
