This week, we discovered that recent US airstrikes against Houthi
targets in Yemen were coordinated over the unsecured Signal
messaging app, where officials accidentally added Jeffrey
Goldberg, Editor of The Atlantic, to the group chat. This
astonishing security lapse offered a rare, behind-the-scenes
glimpse into America’s top national security figures as they make
high-stakes decisions. So, what did we learn?


Plus: As Vice President J.D. Vance visits America’s air base in
Northern Greenland following Donald Trump’s declaration that he
will do whatever it takes to assert control over the island, we
examine what a potential US annexation means for Denmark,
Greenland, and the broader Arctic.


Roland Oliphant is joined by David Blair, former foreign policy
speech writer at No10, Curt Mills, Executive Editor of The
American Conservative, Danish politician and MEP Anders Vistisen,
and Charly Salonius-Pasternak, CEO of Nordic West Office.
