Abstract

Clearly delimited spheres of authority between
Greenland and Denmark within the Realm are
unfeasible. Issues where Greenlandic jurisdiction
and security policy overlap will increasingly arise.
The Government of Denmark must follow through
initiatives taken to improve involvement of the
Government of Greenland (Naalakkersuisut)
– and they must be extended to encompass the
Parliament of Greenland (Inatsisartut).
