Greenland’s centre-right opposition secured a surprise victory in the legislative elections, with rising support for the nationalist Naleraq party advocating swift independence.
The Democratic Party won 29.9% of votes, tripling its 2021 result, while Naleraq more than doubled its share to 24.5%.
Outgoing PM Mute Egede’s Inuit Ataqatigiit party and its coalition partner Siumut placed third and fourth.
With no party securing a majority, coalition talks will shape the next government and its approach to independence.
Trump’s renewed push to acquire Greenland influenced the campaign, driving higher voter turnout.
Naleraq seeks immediate independence, but others prefer financial stability first, as Greenland relies on Danish subsidies.
