Greenland Election Shifts Political Landscape, Rejects U.S. Integration

The center-right Demokraatit party emerged victorious, signaling gradual steps toward independence but maintaining a firm stance against U.S. annexation.

The center-right Demokraatit party won Greenland's election with roughly 30% of the vote, advocating gradual independence and business-friendly policies.
Naleraq, the second-largest party with 25% of votes, strongly supports immediate independence and closer ties with the U.S., but rejects annexation.
The incumbent coalition parties, Inuit Ataqatigiit and Siumut, suffered significant losses, with Siumut's leader resigning after its worst result since 1979.
Donald Trump's push for U.S. acquisition of Greenland has been firmly rejected by all leading Greenlandic parties, despite his claims of progress.
Coalition talks are ongoing, with Demokraatit likely needing Naleraq or Inuit Ataqatigiit to form a government, shaping Greenland's domestic and foreign policies for years to come.
