US, Denmark, and Greenland Sign Agreement Allowing US to Expand Bases

NOS22 September · 18:031 day ago

US President Trump, Danish Prime Minister Frederiksen, and Greenlandic Premier Nielsen signed an agreement in New York to expand US military presence on Greenland, averting a crisis that shook NATO. The deal allows the US to build two new bases at Narsarsuaq and Mestersvig, expand the Pituffik Space Base, and construct Golden Dome missile shield installations, while guaranteeing respect for local rights and restricting investments to EU and NATO members. This resolves tensions arising from Trump’s previous threats to annex the territory by force.
