What’s in Trump’s Greenland ‘deal’ and will it last?
AI Summary
An outline deal between the US and NATO aims to increase NATO's presence in the Arctic to monitor Russian ship movements, contingent on respecting Greenland and Denmark's sovereignty. The agreement, which has been under discussion for some time, requires dedicating new resources to Arctic monitoring. The deal's stability is uncertain due to Trump's past erratic behavior and questions remain about US access to Greenland's minerals and a potential defense shield. The UK and Germany have been pushing for a NATO-led "Arctic sentry," modeled after existing Baltic and Eastern sentries, to address perceived threats from Chinese and Russian fleets. Some NATO members are hesitant, questioning the immediate threat from Russia. A recent NATO reconnaissance mission was designed to assess the scale of the Russian presence and the feasibility of a monitoring mission.
