It was great to start my day in @folketinget catching up with @AajaCL, one of the two MPs representing 🇬🇱 in the 🇩🇰 Parliament. Despite how tumultuous recent weeks have been, I draw inspiration from how stoically and adeptly #Greenland's leadership just gets on with things.

Nuuk at twilight. Can you blame me for being so smitten? #Nuuk #Greenland

Last week, our APPG Greenland delegation from the UK Parliament met with their Greenlandic counterparts - Members of the Inatsisartut from across the political spectrum (Demokraatit, Inuit Ataqatigiit, Siumut, Naleraq) and the Foreign & Security Policy Committee. #uk #greenland

@Mikaa_BM @PolarRPI So glad you were with us!

@PolarRPI Happy anniversary you guys! I can't believe this night was 10 years ago already. Inuinni pilluarit 🥳🥳

Today, @PolarRPI turns 10! We were delighted to bring in this important milestone with Greenland's former Prime Minister Aleqa Hammond who was also at our launch back on 18 February 2016. Here we are in 2016 and in 2026!

On 12 May 2025, the Kingdom of Denmark assumed the Chairship of @ArcticCouncil for 2025-2027. In Nuuk, we met with the Kingdom’s chairship team to learn about its priorities; understand how Arctic cooperation continued; and explore the UK’s contribution to the Arctic Council.

Following Greenland Energy Minister Naaja Nathanielsen's visit to the UK Parliament last month, our APPG for Greenland delegation met Nathanielsen again in Nuuk to better understand the situation on the ground and stand in solidarity with Greenland and its people. #uk #greenland

Few people have had as eventful a year as #Greenland’s phenomenal Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt. Our cross-party delegation from the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Greenland in the #UK Parliament was delighted to meet her, reaffirm our solidarity with the people of Greenland and present @Naalakkersuisut with the Greenland tartan.

It was a pleasure for our #UK cross-party delegation to meet the President and Director of the Inatsisartut, Kim Kielsen and Steen Lynge, earlier this week, express our solidarity with the people of #Greenland and present the Greenland tartan as a symbol of that solidarity.

Here is my open letter to Trump published on @arctic_today this morning. I had written it before Davos for Davos, but I believe much of it is still relevant - and I hope useful. So much can happen in just a day! arctictoday.com/an-open-letter…

In my latest piece for @arctic_today, I discuss what a U.S.-Greenland Compact of Free Association might entail & how, if it arises as a fallback option, Greenland & Denmark could transform it into a win-win scenario, not a compromise, for all concerned. arctictoday.com/what-a-u-s-gre…

Yesterday, the APPG for Greenland hosted Naaja Nathanielsen, Greenland's Minister for Business, Mineral Resources, Energy, Justice & Gender Equality for a Parliamentary briefing with MPs and Lords, followed by a press briefing, in the UK Parliament. politico.eu/article/greenl…

In @arctic_today, I urge @realDonaldTrump to consider that setting up a modern-day equivalent of the Marshall Plan & an economic NATO, both geared toward economic development, would be more effective at securing U.S. interests in Greenland than annexation. arctictoday.com/take-the-high-…

In @nytimes, I call on @realDonaldTrump to move from talk of annexation to creating instead an "economic NATO" & his own version of the Marshall Plan that provides joint financing for strategic projects in Greenland & boosts its economic competitiveness. nytimes.com/2026/01/06/bus…

Two weeks ago, I was pleased to moderate a panel on 'Cooperation for Economic Development in the Arctic', hosted by @PolarRPI and @Naalakkersuisut at @AESymposium in Alaska, the largest annual Arctic convening in North America. @DanishMFA @KoDArctic

By bequeathing her collection to the Chateau-Musée de Boulogne-sur-Mer, my dear friend @alicerogoff has catapulted France’s largest fishing town to the fore of the art & museum world as one of the leading centres of Alaska Native art. polarconnection.org/rogoff-collect…
