Greenland's Coalition: Democracy and Diplomacy in the Arctic

Greenland is poised to announce a new four-party coalition government on Friday, according to reports from local broadcaster KNR. The decision follows a general election overshadowed by President Donald Trump's expressed interest in making the island part of the United States.

The announcement coincides with U.S. Vice President JD Vance's visit to an American military base in Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark. Sources familiar with the ongoing discussions confirmed to Reuters the impending coalition news, marking a significant development in the region's governance.

Jens-Frederik Nielsen, leader of the dominant pro-business party the Democrats, will head the new government. Nielsen has been pivotal in encouraging parties to form a coalition to present a united front against Trump's annexation campaign, emphasizing solidarity and stability for the territory.
