Greenland will form a new coalition government that comprises all but one party elected to its legislature, a show of political unity in the face of ongoing takeover threats from United States President Donald Trump.
Four of the five parties with seats in Greenland’s parliament have agreed to band together in a broad coalition, local media outlets KNR and Sermitsiaq have reported. The deal is set to be announced Friday, the same day U.S. Vice President JD Vance plans to visit an American military base on the Arctic island.
Greenlanders went to the polls two weeks ago in a closely watched election to decide the fate of the self-ruling Danish territory. The center-right Democrats defeated the island’s governing left-wing coalition with about 30 percent of votes, but said it would try to form as broad a coalition as possible amid Trump’s saber-rattling.
