  "summary": "US President Donald Trump announced a deal with Denmark that gives the US permanent control over Greenland's security. According to Trump, the deal is \"historic,\" \"special,\" and a \"dream come true for the US.\"\n\nThe deal, which Denmark's government described as \"binding,\" recognises Denmark's sovereignty and Greenlanders' right to self-determination. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen welcomed the agreement, with Rasmussen saying it would strengthen security in the Arctic and North Atlantic.\n\nDenmark and Greenland plan to sign the deal on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York next week. According to the Winnipeg Free Press, the deal will bolster the US military presence in Greenland but keep the island under Danish control.",
