Greenland polls put sovereignty to test amid US security interest

Hindustan Times Jammu

March 12, 2025

Greenland residents voted on Tuesday in a closely watched election brought into the international spotlight by a pledge from US President Donald Trump to take control of the mineral-rich island.

NUUK:

Since taking office in January, Trump has vowed to make Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, part of the United States, saying it is vital to US security interests.

The island, with a population of just 57,000, has been caught up in a geopolitical race for dominance in the Arctic, where melting ice caps are making its resources more accessible and opening new shipping routes.

Both Russia and China have intensified military activity in the region.
