Greenland should start official talks with Denmark on the island's independence as soon as possible, Kuno Fencker, a Greenlandic lawmaker from the government coalition party Siumut, said in an interview with RIA Novosti. Earlier, Greenland's parliament member, chairman of Naleraq, the largest opposition party in parliament, and former Greenlandic Foreign Minister Pele Broberg told RIA Novosti that Denmark had been threatening Greenland for years every time the question of the island's independence was raised.

Greenland Should Start Talks With Denmark on Island's Independence, Lawmaker Says
NUUK, Greenland (Sputnik) - Greenland was a colony of Denmark until 1953. It remains part of the kingdom, but in 2009 it received autonomy with the possibility of self-government and independent choice in domestic policy. In 2019, a series of media reports appeared about Trump considering purchasing Greenland.
Greenland should start official talks with Denmark on the island's independence as soon as possible, Kuno Fencker, a Greenlandic lawmaker from the government coalition party Siumut, said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
"My personal opinion is that we should officially start talks with Denmark on the establishment of a sovereign state of Greenland. There are many possibilities that people should learn about before we hold a referendum. That is why my party has submitted a motion to parliament that we should activate our right to self-determination," he said.
Earlier, Greenland's
parliament member, chairman of Naleraq, the largest opposition party in parliament, and former Greenlandic Foreign Minister Pele Broberg told RIA Novosti that Denmark had been threatening Greenland for years every time the question of the island's independence was raised.
