President Donald Trump says the United States has reached a security agreement with Denmark regarding Greenland, giving the U.S. “permanent control” over security and related needs on the island. Multiple outlets report he made the announcement via public statements, including a post on Truth Social.

The accounts describe the same core elements: a U.S.-Denmark agreement tied to Greenland’s defense and security arrangements, with the U.S. gaining a continuing role. The Hill and RTE add that the deal expands or supports a significant U.S. military presence and includes steps intended to prevent other adversaries from establishing bases there. CNBC highlights the broader political context, noting Greenland rejects the idea of being “for sale,” and the European Union had criticized Trump’s efforts.

Other outlets largely focus on Trump’s claim of “permanent control over security,” without additional details about implementation, while still framing the agreement as a response to U.S. security concerns about Greenland.
