Greenland election surprises as winner favors slow independence

The socially liberal party emerged as the biggest with 29.9% of the ballots as counting was completed. The results underscore how split the population is on the topic, as Naleragq, the party seeking the fastest breakup with Denmark, finished second. The group had led the count early on, but came out with 24.5% of the votes, according to the tally published by the government on Wednesday.

The two increased their backing from just 9.1% and 12% four years ago, respectively.

The new 31-member parliament will be crucial in defining Greenland's path to become its own nation and which countries it may align itself with once that happens.
