    Backdrop of military folk also because this press conference (to the several embedded press people they dragged along for the event) was held at the US military base on Greenland - because they were not invited to visit any other part of Greenland.

    So, they had literally nobody else who could be in the background of the shot except reporters and US base personnel.

    Both Denmark and Greenland governments responded by saying they view this as an escalation and that Vance had better watch his tone. I think they should start talking about cancelling the renewal date of the land lease for the US base (doesn’t matter if the date is far in the future, just telling them they’re risking expulsion is enough).
