The ceremony caps several days of news regarding the US-led initiative and its members. Among the world leaders participating are Argentina's President Javier Milei and Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban, as well as officials from Azerbaijan, Indonesia and Kosovo. A leaked charter suggests the organisation might be designed to replace functions of the UN. In his speech on Wednesday, Trump vented about other world leaders, but struck a more conciliatory tone later when he announced the "framework of a future deal" over Greenland. Here's what we know about it. |
