Greenland appoints first Arctic ambassador, pledges sustainable development

Description

Ulrik Pram Gad, an academic at the Danish Institute for International Studies, said Greenland's priorities for its Arctic Council chairmanship complicate Trump's attempt to lure the Greenlanders.

"This is basically the opposite of Trump's agenda: building welfare states that respect the equality and diversity of indigenous peoples while securing the green transition to combat climate change," he said.
