A border will be drawn across tiny Hans Island in the Arctic waterway between the semi-autonomous Danish territory of Greenland and Canada’s Ellesmere Island.

“It sends a clear signal that it is possible to resolve border disputes ... in a pragmatic and peaceful way, where the all parties become winners,” said Danish Foreign Minister Jeppe Kofod. He said it was “an important signal now that there is much war and unrest in the world.” In the following years, the territorial dispute — nicknamed the “whisky war” by media — raised its head multiple times.
The agreement enters into force after the two countries’ internal procedures have been completed. In Denmark, the Parliament must first give its consent to the agreement.
