Greenland premier takes on foreign policy portfolio ahead of Arctic talks with Danish PM
Múte B. Egede took the unusual step of taking on responsibility for foreign affairs after the previous minister was demoted for making controversial comments to a Danish newspaper.
Greenland Premier Múte B. Egede will in the coming days meet with his Danish counterpart, Mette Frederiksen, to finalize the details of an arrangement that will see Greenland given a larger say in Arctic foreign affairs, while also permitting it to pursue a foreign policy that diverges from the line set in Copenhagen.
