On September 18, US President Donald Trump announced an agreement with Denmark settling disputes over Greenland. According to him, the United States will gain permanent control over security interests on the Arctic island, which is an autonomous part of the Kingdom of Denmark. Die Zeit ↗
The agreement is intended to prevent China, Russia and other countries outside NATO from establishing military bases or stationing troops in Greenland. At the same time, the United States wants to expand its military presence on the island. Trump stated that the agreement will not infringe on Greenland's or Denmark's sovereignty. La Repubblica ↗
In the past, the American president repeatedly spoke about the possibility of Greenland joining the United States. However, according to available information, the current announcement represents an agreement on security control, not a change in the island's territorial status. Welt ↗
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen described the agreement as beneficial for NATO, Europe, Denmark and Greenland. According to her statement, it is meant to strengthen joint security in the Arctic while also recognizing Danish sovereignty. Further details about how the agreement will function, as well as its timeframe, have not yet been disclosed. ANSA ↗
