US, Greenland, Denmark Sign Deal to End Arctic Impasse, Allow US Military Buildup

The US, Greenland, and Denmark have signed an agreement resolving the Arctic standoff, permitting an increased US military presence in Greenland while avoiding full annexation, which Greenlandic leaders had opposed. The deal marks a diplomatic resolution to a contentious sovereignty dispute, though details on the scale and scope of the military expansion remain unclear. This shifts Arctic security dynamics and could affect regional great-power competition.
