Capital of Greenland, seat of government
Since mid May 2026, U.S. special envoy Jeff Landry has visited Nuuk and the United States has expanded its consular presence as confidential U.S.-Greenland-Denmark talks have continued. Greenlandic leaders have said the island "is not for sale," hundreds have protested in Nuuk, and officials are rejecting proposals that would lock in long-term U.S. control or veto power over investment.
