Denmark and the USA are starting negotiations about a new defense cooperation, according to Sermitsiaq.

Denmark’s Prime Minster Mette Frederiksen (S) presented the news on Thursday. The initiative has come from the USA.

At a press briefing, Frederiksen was asked whether the agreement also will have consequences for Greenland and the Faroe Islands.

She replied that the [Danish] government “is in close dialogue with Greenland and the Faroe Islands”, yet also stressed that the agreement in the main will be about Denmark.
