'We are not for sale': Greenlanders respond to Trump’s US merger proposal

The recent proposal by US President Donald Trump to merge Greenland with the United States has sparked a mix of reactions from the Greenlandic people.
According to recent poll results by Berlingske, about 6% of the territory's population see the potential economic benefits and agree to a merger. However, 85% strongly oppose the idea, citing concerns about sovereignty and cultural identity.
Greenland's Prime Minister Mute Egede has stated that Greenland is not for sale, and that any decision about its future would need to be made by the Greenlandic people themselves.
"We do not want to be Americans, nor Danes, we are Kalaallit (Greenlanders). The Americans and their leader must understand that," Egede said in a post on Facebook.
Despite the controversy surrounding the proposal, Trump remains committed to the idea with his "we will make you rich" appeal.
"We will keep you safe, we will make you rich, and together, we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before," Trump said.
Greenland on Tuesday, March 11, held legislative elections, with 40,000 eligible voters choosing representatives for its 31-seat parliament. Due to the island’s remote geography, ballot counts—transported by boat, plane, and helicopter—could delay the final results for several weeks.
