The Danish navy has decided to station two of its heavy vessels in the shipping lanes of western and eastern Greenland for fear of a disaster because cruise vessels sail too close to icebergs and glaciers in the territory.
“We are responsible for rescue in Arctic waters from Cape Farewell in southern Greenland to the North Pole. It’s a vast area and we are obviously not able to be everywhere,” says Rear Admiral Henrik Kudsk, Commanding Officer at the Danish Grønnedal base in the Arsuk Fjord in southern Greenland.
