It's got a population smaller than Paris’ Latin Quarter, but thanks to Donald Trump, the whole world’s watching Greenland. As citizens of the Arctic Danish dependency choose between six main parties, all pro-independence to varying degrees, we’ll ask how locals voting in parliamentary elections feel about the US president promising Congress to get the mineral-rich island “one way or another”.
Even if it means taking on traditional allies. Denmark’s an EU and NATO member that equips its military with hardware made in the USA. What does Trump's hard bargaining say about the times we live in? New imperialism, melting polar ice caps, housing and social challenges, we’ll ask how changing times are impacting the life of Greenland’s 56,865 inhabitants and what lessons we can all draw from the global attention they're suddenly getting.
Produced by Rebecca Gnignati, Elisa Amiri, Ilayda Habip.
