New Indian ExpressNUUK: On a boat, surrounded by snow-covered mountains and icebergs in shades of blue, Qooqu Berthelsen points to the breaking sea ice as a worrisome sign. "My concern," says the 23-year-old hunter, fisher and tour company owner, "is that Trump will come and take Greenland."

Many in this semi-autonomous territory are worried and offended by Trump's threats to seize control of their mineral-rich homeland, even by force, because he says the US needs it "for national security."
