Danish Prime Minister Calls Snap Election With Greenland Independence Center Stage

Denmark's Prime Minister has called a snap election with the future of Greenland's relationship with the kingdom at the center of the campaign, as tensions escalate with the United States over President Trump's continued interest in acquiring the territory. The move comes days after Denmark summoned the U.S. envoy over allegations of American interference in Greenland and after Greenland's prime minister publicly rejected Trump's offer to send a hospital ship to the island.
