In Greenland, the opposition, center-right Demokraatit Party pulled off a surprise victory in parliamentary elections. All of Greenland’s main parties have called for full independence from Denmark, though the Demokraatit Party favors a more gradual transition. The election was called last month as Greenland came under a major international spotlight amid Trump’s threats to take over the territory, which is home to rare earth minerals. Greenlanders have forcefully rejected the idea. The population of Greenland is just 56,000 and is 90% Inuit.
