NUUK, Jan 15, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Greenland's residents expressed a mix of anxiety and relief after a meeting was held Wednesday in the White House between officials from the United States, Denmark and the island at the centre of President Donald Trump's focus. "It's very frightening because it's such a big thing," said Vera Stidsen, 51, a teacher in Nuuk, Greenland's capital. Red and white Greenlandic flags flew in shop windows, on apartment balconies, and on cars and buses, in a show of national unity during the talks. "Our hearts have felt very unsafe lately because of Trump's very direct, very aggressive way of talking about Greenland," she added. "They didn't manage to make an agreement but I have my hopes because I want to live in peace," he said.
