The Wider Image: Inuit pride stirs independence mood in Greenland

A general view shows Nuuk as the sun sets in Greenland, February 4, 2025. Trump has cited China and Russia’s Arctic presence among his reasons for his interest in Greenland, which the United States previously offered to buy for $100 million from Denmark in 1946, after World War Two. A recent poll indicated that 85 percent of Greenlanders do not wish to become a part of the United States, with nearly half seeing Trump’s interest as a threat. REUTERS/Sarah Meyssonnier
