AI Summary:
Greenland is the world’s largest island - it’s larger even than France, Germany, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy, Greece, Switzerland, and Belgium combined. But its foreign, defence and monetary policies are all decided in Copenhagen. It has a tiny population of just 56,000 people, most of them indigenous Inuits. Most say they don’t want to be American, and many are worried and overwhelmed by the comments. Inuit Ataqatigiit party and Simiut party may continue to govern in a coalition, as they do now. The prime minister comes from the party with the most seats. Naleraq is the largest opposition party and has been growing in popularity. Greenland is a self-governing territory of Denmark with a population of about 56,000 people. Trump made a direct appeal to Greenlanders in his speech to Congress. “We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America,” Trump said. The U.S and other global powers covet its strategic location in the Arctic. There’s also potential for shipping and trade routes as the ice that covers most of Greenland keeps retreating because of climate change. If that ice melts, it would reshape coastlines across the globe and potentially shift weather patterns.
