The report has highlighted that the US is ramping up its vigilance and intelligence gathering with its spy agencies asked to focus on Greenland's independence movement. Rasmussen has said that, 바카라We are going to call in the U.S. acting ambassador for a discussion at the foreign ministry to see if we can confirm this information, which is somewhat disturbing,바카라 as reported by Reuters.
