Donald Trump says a deal with Denmark gives the US permanent control over Greenland’s security and other needs, while barring rival military bases and sensitive investments. Denmark says it retains sovereignty, and the agreement still requires parliamentary approval. The deal falls short of Trump’s earlier goal of US ‘ownership’ of Greenland.
