After dispute with Trump: Has the Greenland conflict been resolved now?

US President Donald Trump sparked controversy with his claims to the Arctic island of Grönland, prompting outrage among allies and in Europe. The US, Denmark, and Grönland have now announced a breakthrough, with Trump stating that the US will have permanent control over defence and security matters on the island. The agreement, which has not yet been signed, recognises Denmark's sovereignty and Grönland's right to self-determination, and aims to strengthen security in the Arctic and North Atlantic. The deal is set to be finalised at the UN General Assembly in New York next week.
