Is Greenland scared of a US-invasion? Not really.

Many Greenlanders feel that the world around them is more worried about Greenland than they are, Euronews' Shona Murray tells Radio Schuman today from Greenland’s capital Nuuk.

Shona has been on the ground in Greenland gauging reaction to US President Donald Trump's bid to acquire the territory for the US.

Trump's interest in Greenland has unsettled European leaders, despite their efforts to remain silent. Denmark’s Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, sought support from three European capitals and announced a $2 billion security boost for the Arctic.

Some officials even considered deploying European troops to Greenland. However, Europe is reluctant to confront Trump and has other priorities.

Euronews' Shona found that many Greenlanders seek greater independence from Denmark, are open to business with the US, but are not looking to alter their ties with the EU.

Radio Schuman also reports on a new study on how the weather affects the mental health of young people.
