The recent parliamentary elections in Greenland marked a significant political shift. The center-right Demokraatit Party, led by Jens-Frederik Nielsen, secured about 30% of the vote, edging out the centrist Naleraq party, which garnered 25%. Both parties advocate for Greenland's eventual independence from Denmark; however, Demokraatit favors a more gradual approach than Naleraq. The elections occurred against a backdrop of renewed U.S. interest in Greenland, sparked by President Trump's comments on the territory's strategic importance. Despite the desire for independence, Nielsen emphasized the need for a stable foundation and stated that Greenland is not for sale.
