Denmark defends the agreement with the US on Greenland because "the situation in the Arctic has changed"

The government of Greenland and the United States have reached a security agreement involving Denmark, the island's sovereign state. The deal, announced by President Donald Trump, establishes a framework for Washington to manage security and other operational requirements within the autonomous territory.

While the United States describes the arrangement as granting Washington permanent control over security and related needs, the Greenlandic government emphasizes that the agreement upholds the island's territorial integrity and sovereignty. The accord formalizes the strategic relationship between the three parties regarding the Arctic territory.
