NATO has welcomed the agreement between Denmark and the United States over Greenland, following months of threats from Donald Trump to annex the territory. Trump stated the deal will give the US "permanent security control" over Greenland, a move that comes after prolonged diplomatic tensions. The agreement marks a significant development in the longstanding dispute over the Arctic territory, which Trump had repeatedly said he wanted to acquire for the United States. Danish officials had previously rejected annexation threats while expressing willingness to increase cooperation on security matters in the Arctic region.
