Greenland is in the middle of a political storm. The government there has made it clear that they did not invite any US officials to visit. This comes after some big names from the US, including the national security adviser and the wife of the vice-president, planned a trip to the island. They said it was a private visit to watch a dog sledding contest and check out a US military base. But Greenland isn't having it.

The US President has been talking a lot about Greenland. He has even suggested that the US could take the island by force. This has put Greenland in the middle of a big geopolitical game. The US President claimed that some people in Greenland want something to happen. But Greenland's government quickly shot down that idea. They said they didn't invite anyone and asked countries to respect their political process.

Greenland recently had elections. The winning party, Demokraatit, wants slow independence from Denmark. The party leader, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, told people not to panic. He said Greenlanders should stand together but not get pulled into a power struggle they didn't choose. The US consulate in Greenland gave money to the dog sledding contest, but they kept the amount secret. This has added fuel to the fire.

Denmark, which Greenland is part of, also criticized the US visit. They said it shows a lack of respect for Greenland's sovereignty. Denmark wants more cooperation with the US in the Arctic, but this visit is seen as a provocation. It's a complicated situation, and Greenland is trying to navigate it carefully. People there are protesting against the US visit, and the government is trying to keep things calm. It's a tough spot for a small island with a big geopolitical target on its back.
