The week ahead: Our election
Foreign observers want Greenland’s election next week to be a plebiscite about independence. Most voters have long since made up their mind on the issue.
Translated loosely, the name that the people of Greenland call their territory is ‘our country’. Legally speaking, this is not yet completely the case: Until the people of Kalaallit Nunaat (literally: the land of the Kalaallit) decide otherwise, it is a part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and just as many decisions that affect the country are made in Copenhagen as in Nuuk.
