Greenland remains unexpected: Eggede warns of Trump's power game!

Greenland! The conflict of geopolitical control over the island heats the minds and attracts the interest of the world public. It was already bubbling behind the scenes when the future US President Donald Trump expressed several interest in the takeover of Greenland. Prime Minister Múte Eggede from Greenland is now asking the population to keep calm and "put their differences aside". Eggede emphasizes the importance of Greenland's self-determination and announces an open collaboration with the new US administration to ensure security and stability in the Arctic region, as Srf.ch . The Greenland government recognizes the interests of the United States in the Arctic, but also sees it as a counterweight to Denmark.

The fears of Greenland's independence

The establishment of a possible independence of Greenland could not only affect the relationship with Denmark, but also the geopolitical balance of power in the region. As a proponent of independence, Eggede has positioned himself and sees the current situation an opportunity to take the "captivation of colonialism" and to shape their own future. At the same time, the Danish government is concerned that Trump's aggressive rhetoric endangers the domestic cohesion and international relationships. Prime Minister Frederiksen and Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen assure that there are legitimate American interests, but the collaboration is based on dialogue and respect.
