Greenland's opposition wins election dominated by independence and Trump

Mar 13, 2025

Nuuk [Greenland], March 13: Greenland's centre-right opposition has won a surprise general election victory - in a vote dominated by independence and US President Donald Trump's pledge to take over the semi-autonomous territory.
The Democratic party, which favours a gradual approach to independence from Denmark - achieved around 30% of the vote, near-complete results show.
"Greenland needs us to stand together in a time of great interest from outside," party leader Jens-Frederik Nielsen told local media. "There is a need for unity, so we will enter into negotiations with everyone."
His party will now have to negotiate with other parties in order to form a coalition.
