Aaja Chemnitz
Role at the time: Former Inuit Ataqatigiit member of the Danish Folketing for Greenland (2015 to March 2026) and senior adviser at the consultancy Inuva, on her public Facebook page
Statement summary
In a Danish-language Facebook post on the morning of September 19, 2026, former Folketing member Aaja Chemnitz wrote that she looks forward to the new agreement with the USA being finalized and its content becoming visible, that until then she is skeptical, and that she does not have much confidence in Trump. The same post says more U.S. military presence is not the solution for Greenland right now, and that she is grateful for the work behind the agreement and is crossing her fingers for the best. The quotation is an English translation of two consecutive paragraphs of the Danish original.
“I'm looking forward to the ink being dry on the new agreement with the USA. And to us being able to see the content. Until then, I'm skeptical. I don't have much confidence in Trump.”
Why we used this label
Chemnitz does not address that wording; she says she looks forward to the agreement being finalized and its content being visible, and that until then she is skeptical and has little confidence in Trump, so her position waits on a text nobody outside the three governments had seen. The closest competing label is condemns, because she voices distrust of Trump and elsewhere in the post says more U.S. military presence is not the solution. That loses because she does not reject the agreement or Trump's description of it, and the same post says she is grateful for the work behind the agreement and hopes it addresses many of Greenland's challenges.
