Danish newspaper Politiken reports on the severe contamination left behind by US military installations in Greenland. A recent inspection describes pollution so severe that a strong odor of oil could still be detected at the site, with rusted infrastructure and toxic waste persisting decades after the American presence. The findings renew debate over responsibility for cleaning up former US bases on the island.

Why now: US-Greenland relations and America's historical footprint there are under renewed scrutiny, drawing attention to unresolved environmental damage.
