Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that he wants to acquire Greenland and insists the Arctic island is vital to his country’s security. There had been growing worry in Nuuk that Washington’s threats to take control of Greenland’s vast and mineral-rich land would result in US military action.
Greenlanders’ worst fears have eased for now, after Trump ruled out using force to prise the island from Denmark, which has ruled the semi-autonomous territory for more than 300 years. This was quickly followed by news that the US president and Nato secretary-general Mark Rutte had agreed a draft framework to defuse tensions.
