US President Donald Trump announced a historic agreement with Denmark, granting the United States permanent full security control over Greenland. The announcement was published on the Truth Social platform. Trump claimed the agreement fully addresses all American concerns and will cost the US nothing. He emphasized that no adversary will be able to establish a base in Greenland, maintain a military presence, or invest in its territory without explicit written American approval. Trump noted that past US presidents have been aware of Greenland's strategic importance for over 100 years, but none acted on it. He defined the agreement as having "eternal validity" and said military development on the island will begin immediately. Trump added that the solution is excellent for the US, Denmark, Greenland, and all allies, and that the US will zealously defend the island.
