Denmark hails ‘binding’ Greenland deal with Trump giving US ‘permanent control’ of security
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported31m ago
Denmark and Greenland have announced a binding agreement with the United States regarding the security of the Arctic territory, set to be signed at the UN General Assembly. President Donald Trump stated the deal provides Washington with permanent control over the island's security, though its precise scope remains unclear.
While the agreement grants the US permanent security control and bars Chinese and Russian bases as well as sensitive investments in the Arctic territory, officials from Denmark and Greenland emphasized that the pact does not compromise Greenland's sovereignty. The arrangement ultimately falls short of President Trump's broader desire for full US control over the island.
