Analysis: Trump ends the Greenland crisis for now - but one problem remains
US President Trump and his supporters describe the agreement with Denmark as a "historic victory". Experts welcome the progress but doubt this representation.
US President Donald Trump announced a deal with Denmark and Greenland over the island, with his supporters praising the move as a strategic victory. The agreement, set to be signed next week, reportedly gives the US permanent access and overflight rights, allows it to expand its military base, and bars non-NATO states from establishing military presence or making sensitive investments.
However, Denmark and Greenland emphasized that the deal does not compromise the island's sovereignty. Experts welcomed the agreement but noted that it largely builds on existing arrangements and that Trump's previous threats had caused significant damage to US relations with Denmark and NATO.
