Health minister in Nuuk condemns doctor’s presence in US delegation as ‘deeply problematic
Greenland’s government has criticised the arrival of a US doctor in Nuuk alongside Donald Trump’s special envoy, Jeff Landry, saying that Greenlanders are not “experimental subjects”.
Joseph Griffin said he had joined the delegation as a volunteer to “assess the medical needs” of the Arctic island, which the US president has repeatedly threatened to invade.
Greenland’s health minister, Anna Wangenheim, immediately condemned his presence, describing it as “deeply problematic”.
“The health sector in Greenland has historically been the subject of geopolitical interest,” she said in a statement hinting at deep sensitivities in the now largely autonomous territory, which as a Danish colony experienced repeated health-related abuses of Indigenous Greenlandic people.
Early in 2025, Trump’s admin removed Russia from their Cyber Threats list. They’ve lifted sanctions on Russian oil, and are generally helping Russia out. Trump’s recently gone to China too, and sucked up to Xi.
Greenlanders/Europe should realise by now that the “Threat” the US talks about in regards to why the US wants Greenland, is the EU and local Greenlanders.
No one aspires to American “healthcare”.
Please tell that to as many right European politicians as possible. Because they are doing everything they can to dismantle universal health care.
Whoa whoa whoa. Tell that to the faux-ristocracy in Canada first, please. Please? Our guys are super-dumb, so it should be easier.
Why don’t they just stop these people from entering in the first place? I keep seeing Greenland cry about the horrible Americans (as they should) but then they just let them in for some reason?
Greenland needs to take a hint from the sentinelese

He’s a spy, eat him.
I wouldnt trust American meat to be edible.
Cook it extra long in a stew until tender. 6 hours at least.
