Vance & his wife were in Greenland for just a few hours, visiting just the #Pituffik Space Base, a missile defence facility in the remote north of the island, some 930 miles (1,500km) from the capital, #Nuuk. #auspol #USPol

@ryansingel #American universities for long have taken advantage of foreign students: new perspectives/research and obviously the huge fees foreigners pay.
