Election staff preparing to check votes in Nuuk, Greenland on March 11, 2025
When voting to elect 33 congressmen in the island, about 40,000 voters here not only voted a member of the new Parliament to decide the new autonomous government but also showed the attitude of the world politics directly related to the island as the intention of US President Donald Trump who wanted to buy the island for the United States. In a recent presentation before the US lawmin, Mr. Trump declared that the United States had a strategic security benefit on this ice island and then it would be gained to the island “in one way or another”. Therefore, this year’s parliamentary election on the island is essentially a referendum here on independence or dependence, “The Greenland people are Greenland, or Danish citizens or American citizens”.
The small election thus has a great impact because the election results will be the answer of the people on the island about Mr. Trump’s ambition to expand the territory of the United States. In addition to buying Greenland Island, Mr. Trump also intended to regain control of Panama canal for the United States, turning Canada into the 51st state of the United States and directly controlling the Gaza Strip in the Middle East. The expression of people’s attitudes on Greenland islands will thus have a small impact on the upcoming tendency of people in Panama, Canada and the Gaza Strip on the aforementioned intentions of Mr. Trump.
Following the results of public opinion polls recently, the majority of people on the Greenland island want to continue autonomous and proceed to independence, not wanting this island to become the part of both Denmark and American. So it can be said that this small election has not happened, Mr. Trump has received the answer.
Greenland territory Mr. Trump wants to buy elections, many parties want to be independent from Denmark
