Preliminary data show Greenland's pro-business opposition Demokraatit party won the elections, beating the incumbent left-wing coalition.

Demokraatit, which favors a slow approach to independence from Denmark, secured 29.9 percent of the votes with all ballots counted, up from 9.1 percent in 2021, ahead of the opposition Naleraq party, which favors rapid independence and wants a defense agreement with the US, at 24.5 percent.

Jens-Frederik Nielsen, the Demokraatit party's leader, said Greenland is not for sale and rebuffed Trump's interest in acquiring it, calling the aggressive overtures "a threat to our political independence".
