Greenland: Trump Secures Military Access and Excludes China and Russia

On September 18, Donald Trump announced an agreement with Denmark and Greenland prohibiting the establishment of Chinese or Russian military bases on the island without Washington's approval. This agreement grants the United States permanent control over Greenland's security at no cost, including permanent base and overflight rights. The clause aims to prevent any military presence from non-NATO countries in response to Chinese and Russian ambitions in the region. This development follows previous tensions between the U.S. and Denmark regarding the sovereignty of the territory.
