Prime Minister Nielsen is seeking to enhance cooperation, which is currently governed by several different agreements, particularly in the fields of education, critical minerals, renewable energy, digitalisation and sustainable tourism.
During his European Parliament address on Wednesday, he touched on various areas of partnership, with a particular emphasis on raw materials, as Greenland holds 24 of the 34 critical minerals identified by the EU.
“In 2023, the EU and Greenland agreed on a strategic partnership on sustainable raw materials value chains (...)Taking the current security situation in the world into account and the green transition, there is, however, a need to move faster," Nielsen said.
"The critical minerals of Greenland have the potential to shift global and security balances. But action needs to be taken fast”.
