Denmark's government has welcomed a deal with the US to bolster the American military presence on Greenland. The agreement allows the US to develop a significant military presence on the island while keeping it under Danish control.
According to Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, the deal is a good agreement. US President Donald Trump announced the deal, saying it was "historic," "special," and a "dream come true for the US."
The deal comes after months of threats by President Trump to seize the semi-autonomous territory of a NATO ally, citing threats from Russia and China. The agreement gives the US permanent control over Greenland's security, barring Russian and Chinese influence.
