They also come amid a widely publicized trip to the island by Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr.
Some residents canvassed by KNR criticized Trump Sr.’s comments, saying they would prefer the island to remain under Danish control.
“I see Donald Trump’s interest in Greenland as very dangerous,” said Greenlander Jens Danielsen.
Another resident, Anguteq Larsen, told KNR he would prefer Greenland to be independent, without having to rely on either Denmark or the US.
“So Greenland is not MAGA and Greenland is not going to be MAGA,” she said.
