Trump Claims New Greenland Security Deal Gives US Long-Term Control
Donald Trump says the United States has reached a new agreement with Denmark and Greenland that would give Washington long-term control over security arrangements on the Arctic island. He said the arrangement would prevent US adversaries from establishing military bases, maintaining a military presence or making sensitive investments in Greenland without US approval. Trump also said the United States would expand its military presence and support development projects there. Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. The claim has drawn attention because of its potential implications for Greenland’s self-determination, Denmark’s territorial integrity and strategic rivalry in the Arctic. What could this mean for relations between the United States, Denmark and Greenland?
