"Around 85% of Greenlanders do not want to become part of the US, a new poll has found, as Denmark's prime minister shored up support for its current status.

It comes after Donald Trump said the Arctic island was vital to US security and Denmark should give up control of its semi-autonomous territory.

According to Danish daily newspaper Berlingske, which commissioned the survey by pollster Verian, only 6% of Greenlanders are in favour of becoming part of the US, with 9% undecided."
