Burnham has praised an agreement involving Greenland ahead of an expected first meeting with Donald Trump, setting up a contrast with Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey, who dismissed the development as a “pretend” victory for the US president.
The agreement was welcomed by Burnham, although the supplied information does not give further details about its terms or the parties involved. His comments came before the expected first meeting with Trump.
Davey criticised the way the agreement was being presented, describing it as a “pretend” victory for Trump. The opposing reaction highlights a political disagreement over the significance of the deal and how it should be interpreted.
No further details have been provided about the timing, location or agenda of the expected meeting, or about what will happen next in relation to the Greenland agreement.
