Trump signs 'tremendous' Greenland security deal
Donald Trump strikes a security deal with Greenland and Denmark on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. The deal comes after Trump repeatedly said the US should own the Danish territory.
US President Donald Trump signed a significant security agreement with Denmark and Greenland on Tuesday, aimed at bolstering Arctic and North Atlantic security. The deal, which Trump announced earlier this month, involves the establishment of two new military bases in south and eastern Greenland. The US will have the ability to modernize and expand its activities at the Space Force base, while also reaffirming the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark and Greenland.
The agreement comes after months of pressure from Trump, who has expressed a desire to control the resource-rich island.
