                               RESOLUTION


 
 Honoring President Donald J. Trump for securing a historic strategic 
agreement establishing permanent United States sovereignty and control 
over critical military installations in Greenland, strengthening Arctic 
     security, and countering malign Russian and Chinese influence.

Whereas the Arctic region has emerged as a central theater of great power 
        competition, with Russia and the People's Republic of China seeking to 
        expand their military, economic, and strategic footprint in the High 
        North;
Whereas Greenland occupies one of the most strategically significant geographic 
        positions in the world, serving as a gateway between North America and 
        Europe and a critical node for early-warning systems, missile defense, 
        and Arctic power projection;
Whereas previous administrations failed to adequately address the growing 
        security risks posed by foreign adversaries operating in and around 
        Greenland, leaving the United States and its allies vulnerable to 
        emerging threats in the Arctic domain;
Whereas President Donald J. Trump demonstrated decisive leadership by pursuing a 
        bold diplomatic strategy to secure permanent United States sovereignty 
        and control over key military bases and defense installations in 
        Greenland, ensuring uninterrupted American operational authority and 
        readiness in the region;
Whereas, under the leadership of President Trump, the United States reached a 
        long-term strategic framework with Denmark, Greenland, and North 
        Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies that respects existing 
        political arrangements while guaranteeing exclusive United States 
        military control over critical installations necessary for national and 
        allied defense;
Whereas this historic agreement enhances the ability of the United States to 
        deploy advanced missile defense systems, safeguard Arctic sealanes, and 
        prevent Russia and China from gaining any economic or military foothold 
        in Greenland;
Whereas the agreement strengthens NATO's collective security posture, reinforces 
        transatlantic unity, and ensures that the Arctic remains secure, stable, 
        and free from authoritarian influence;
Whereas President Trump's leadership avoided armed conflict, preserved alliance 
        cohesion, and delivered lasting security gains through strength-based 
        diplomacy rather than concession or delay; and
Whereas this achievement represents one of the most significant advancements in 
        United States Arctic and hemispheric defense policy in modern history: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) honors President Donald J. Trump for his historic 
        leadership in securing permanent United States sovereignty and 
        control over critical military bases and defense installations 
        in Greenland;
            (2) recognizes the strategic importance of Greenland to the 
        national security of the United States and its allies;
            (3) affirms the necessity of maintaining robust American 
        military presence and operational authority in the Arctic to 
        deter aggression by foreign adversaries; and
            (4) commends the use of strength, diplomacy, and resolve in 
        advancing United States security interests without the use of 
        force.
                                 <all>

Honoring President Donald J. Trump for securing a historic strategic agreement establishing permanent United States sovereignty and control over critical military installations in Greenland, strengthening Arctic security, and countering malign Russian and Chinese influence.
