We Went to Greenland to Ask About a Trump Takeover

Politico  

L ocal feelings about far-off power centers figure prominently in the local politics and culture: The government titled its most recent foreign policy road map “Nothing about us without us.” During my visit, Nuuk’s modest art museum was restaging an old exhibit that imagines Greenland as a belligerent expansionist power, complete with agitprop extolling the virtues of its attack kayaks. Then he attended Trump’s election night rally at the Palm Beach Convention Center, snagging a photo with Donald Trump Jr. On Tuesday, when Trump Jr. arrived in Nuuk, Boassen was waiting to greet him inside the airport terminal, sporting a white anorak, a traditional Greenlandic jacket. Boassen said he took Trump Jr. to see a handful of sights around Nuuk and then to a gathering of local Trump supporters at the steakhouse atop the Hotel Hans Egede, the city’s premier lodging for international travelers. Boassen said that Trump Jr. quizzed him about Greenland’s culture and climate, and about local attitudes toward the U.S. and Denmark.
