> The United States, Denmark and Greenland plan to sign an agreement next week on the sidelines of the 81st UN General Assembly to strengthen security in the Arctic and North Atlantic. It must still pass national parliamentary procedures before taking effect. Mette Frederiksen said it recognizes Denmark’s sovereignty and Greenlanders’ right to self-determination, while Donald Trump said it gives Washington permanent control over the island’s security.
