Trump Jr. faces bribery allegations in Greenland campaign
President-elect Donald Trump’s eldest son, Don Jr., is accused of bribing poor Greenlanders to back his father’s plans to annex the territory.
A Danish broadcaster reports that some people in a Trump campaign video were socially disadvantaged or homeless.
Trump’s team did not comment, but local supporters denied the claims.
Jorgen Boassen, a self-proclaimed Trump fan, said attendance at a Nuuk restaurant dinner does not prove bribery.
On Truth Social, Trump reiterated his vision for Greenland’s future under U.S. governance, calling it “an incredible place” with immense potential.
Meanwhile, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen rejected Trump’s proposal, emphasizing Greenland’s autonomy.
Recent announcements of increased defense spending on the island coincided with Trump’s renewed interest, sparking debate.
Don Jr. visited Greenland privately this week, but a meeting with Greenlandic and Danish leaders was postponed due to scheduling conflicts.
