The United States, Denmark and Greenland are set to sign a U.S. security deal for Greenland on Tuesday during the UN General Assembly in New York, according to Denmark's government. President Donald Trump revealed last Friday that this arrangement would grant America permanent control over Greenland's security, a territory he has long desired.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, along with Trump and Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen, will conduct the signing at 1430 GMT in the UN building in New York. Frederiksen stated that the agreement, which remains unpublished, acknowledges Denmark's sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as the Greenlandic people's right to self-determination.
She considered the pact favorable from a Danish standpoint and beneficial to the Nordic countries, Arctic security, NATO, and Europe. Since his return to the White House in January 2025, Trump has repeatedly emphasized the significance of this deal.
