Greenland set to get new govt as Trump's takeover threat looms
Hindustan Times
|March 13, 2025
Talks to form a new Greenland government tasked with mapping a timeline for independence from Denmark began on Wednesday, a day after elections that saw support soar for a party seeking to cut ties swiftly.
-
Tuesday's vote in the self-governing Danish territory came against the backdrop of US President Donald Trump's threats to take over the resource-rich Arctic island, which have shined an unprecedented global spotlight on Greenlandic politics.
All of the territory's main political parties, and the majority of the 57,000 inhabitants, back independence.
The social liberal, pro-business party, Demokraatit (Democrats), secured 29.9% of the votes, up from 9.1% in 2021, ahead of the opposition Naleraq party, which favours rapid independence, and which received 24.5% of votes.
Demokraatit will now have ten seats in the 31-seat parliament, whereas it had three prior to the election. Naleraq party will have eight seats in the parliament.
