According to the minister, this is neither about replacing nor relieving the Danish soldiers already stationed in Greenland.

This is part of expanding the mission that the defense will be responsible for, in line with the rearmament of the Danish defense, Bruus says, who also refers to the political decision that conscripts "will also be able to participate in operations."

The first group of conscripts will be sent to Greenland at the end of July and will stay for a month. The size of the groups has not been made public.
