Trump Reaches Framework Greenland Deal
President Trump said he reached a framework for a deal on the future of Greenland. Some Greenlanders were relieved but wary after Mr. Trump backed down from his threat to use force.

“The world wants to know how you did the deal sir.” “It’s a really good deal for everybody.” “Do you still plan to acquire Greenland?” “Really good.” “Does it still include the United States having ownership of Greenland like you’ve said you wanted?” “It’s a long-term deal. It’s the ultimate long-term deal, and I think it puts everybody in a really good position. Thank you very much.” “What I don’t hear is Greenland still — is it still under the Kingdom of Denmark in this framework deal?” “That issue did not come up anymore in my conversations tonight with the president. He’s very much focused on what do we need to do to make sure that that huge Arctic region, where change is taking place at the moment, where the Chinese and Russians are more and more active, how we can protect it.” “Mr. Rutte, is it a good deal?” “I think it was a very good meeting tonight, but still a lot of work to be done, but I’ve got to go.” “I don’t have to use force. I don’t want to use force. I won’t use force. All the United States is asking for is a place called Greenland.” “It makes me super relieved, but again, you never know. I still feel like everything, everything can happen.” “I do think that he still really wants to take Greenland. I try not to think too much about it because it can be so consuming.”

Denmark’s prime minister insists sovereignty is non-negotiable as Trump announces Greenland deal ‘framework’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is insisting that Denmark will not negotiate on its sovereignty despite President Donald Trump announcing a “framework” of a deal on Greenland has been reached.
In a statement, she indicated that the nation is open to discussions with allies as long as the engagement respects Denmark’s “territorial integrity.”
“Security in the Arctic is a matter for the entire NATO alliance. Therefore, it is good and natural that it is also discussed between NATO’s Secretary General and the President of the United States. The Kingdom of Denmark has long worked for NATO to increase its engagement in the Arctic,” Frederiksen noted in the statement, which was written in Danish.
“We have been in close dialogue with NATO and I have spoken to NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on an ongoing basis, including both before and after his meeting with President Trump in Davos. NATO is fully aware of the position of the Kingdom of Denmark. We can negotiate on everything political; security, investments, economy. But we cannot negotiate on our sovereignty,” she asserted.

The Danish prime minister noted that “only Denmark and Greenland themselves can make decisions on issues concerning Denmark and Greenland. The Kingdom of Denmark wishes to continue to engage in a constructive dialogue with allies on how we can strengthen security in the Arctic, including the US’s Golden Dome, provided that this is done with respect for our territorial integrity.”
Her comments come after Trump announced on Truth Social that, “Based upon a very productive meeting that I have had with the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region.”
A security framework for Greenland negotiated by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte will have to be presented before all allies for consideration, the Spanish Foreign Minister told Euronews on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday.
