“We and many other allies have increased our presence, activities and investments to ensure Arctic security and deter adversaries. The Kingdom of Denmark, including Greenland, is part of NATO. Security in the Arctic must therefore be ensured collectively, in collaboration with NATO allies, including the United States, respecting the principles of the United Nations Charter, including sovereignty, territorial integrity and the inviolability of borders.” Some European leaders, including Macron, Merz and Meloni, declared this in a joint note.
«These are universal principles – say the European leaders – and we will not stop defending them. The United States is an essential partner in this effort, as a NATO ally and through the 1951 Defense Agreement between the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States.”
Media: “The US is working on an association agreement with Greenland that excludes Denmark”
The United States is working on an association agreement with Greenland that excludes Denmark. It is one of the hypotheses put on the table by the Trump administration according to the British weekly Economist regarding a formal annexation. This would be a political and military agreement to allow Washington to deploy troops more freely and expand its military infrastructure. For his part, Trump continues: «We will deal with Greenland in about two months. We will talk about Greenland in 20 days”, US President Donald Trump said this, according to international media reconstructions, in recent days when he once again reiterated his aims for the island.
