Greenland's lawmakers approve a security deal with Denmark and the US after months of pressure from President Trump

Greenland's parliament voted to ratify the agreement on Tuesday, ending months of diplomatic pressure from Trump, who has repeatedly demanded control over the Arctic island. The deal gives the US expanded security rights alongside Denmark, which retains sovereignty over Greenland.

The vote follows Trump's months-long campaign to bring Greenland under US influence, including threats of economic pressure on Denmark.

Greenland's government insisted the deal preserves its autonomy, with sovereignty remaining firmly with Denmark rather than transferred to Washington.

The ratification marks a significant shift for Greenland, which had resisted US demands, making the eventual approval a notable diplomatic win for Trump.
