- The United States, Denmark, and Greenland signed a permanent agreement granting the U.S. broad military access to Greenland.
- The deal is explicitly aimed at bolstering North Atlantic security and countering influence from Russia and China.
Why it matters: The agreement converts a longstanding flashpoint between the U.S. and Denmark over Greenland's status into formalized, permanent U.S. military access rights in a strategically located North Atlantic territory, with the stated purpose of pushing back against Russian and Chinese regional influence.
