Washington will build two “very major” military bases on the Arctic island under a new security deal with Denmark, the US president has said
The US is set to significantly expand its military presence in Greenland under a new security agreement with Denmark, President Donald Trump has announced.
Speaking at the UN General Assembly in New York on Tuesday, Trump revealed details of the deal, which is due to be formally signed following his address.
“We will have the complete ability to do what is necessary to defend the American continent, and also Europe and other places,” Trump said. “No US adversary will ever be permitted to establish a military presence in Greenland any more, or make sensitive investments there without our express written approval.”
