Summary
Year-end is Denmark’s target for reaching a deal with the US over Greenland, Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen told Politiken.

Trump’s repeated calls to acquire Greenland have driven the standoff, making the negotiations a test of how the allies manage sovereignty and security interests in the Arctic.
