  "summary": "Denmark has hailed a \"binding\" deal with the US, announced by President Donald Trump, that gives Washington \"permanent control\" over Greenland's security. The agreement also bars Russian and Chinese bases from the Arctic territory. According to Daily Times, Trump has insisted that the US needs to control Greenland for strategic reasons, alarming NATO ally Denmark.\n\nThe deal, which is expected to be signed on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York next week, has been welcomed by Denmark and Greenland. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said on social media that the agreement would strengthen security in the Arctic and North Atlantic, and respect Denmark's \"red lines\".\n\nThe terms of the agreement are still unclear, but according to The Korea Times, it is expected to allow the US to develop a significant military presence on Greenland, while prohibiting US adversaries from building their own bases on the island. Rasmussen expressed hope that the deal would end months of uncertainty triggered by Trump's threats to seize control of Greenland, saying \"next week could be a good week... for Greenland, Denmark, and the United States\".",
