An agreement has been reached that "strengthens our common security in the Arctic and North Atlantic, and is therefore also good for NATO and Europe." Furthermore, the deal acknowledges the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark and the Greenlandic people's right to self-determination.

“The agreement recognizes Greenland’s interests and our place in international cooperation,” stated Greenland's Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen. “It benefits us all.”
