The Inuit Ataqatigiit party of Greenland has adopted a careful stance on independence, following the general election on March 11. While there has been a resurgence in independence aspirations, the ruling party emphasizes consideration of economic and welfare implications before any decisive moves.
Heightened interest from the United States has rekindled discussions on independence from Denmark. However, Naaja Nathanielsen, former resources minister, indicated in a Reuters interview that decisions will not be rushed amidst political fervor. While most Greenlanders do wish for eventual independence, they are divided on when to pursue it, as living standards remain a concern.
Siumut, IA's coalition partner, recently announced an intention to invoke a 2009 law granting greater autonomy, thus facilitating discussions on full independence. The need for a robust economy is underscored, with propositions to expand Greenland's tourism and mining sectors. As political parties debate the timeline, Greenland prepares for a comprehensive path to autonomy.
