Greenland's political parties must set aside disagreements and swiftly form a broad coalition government to show unity in the face of a U.S. campaign to annex the island, the Democrats said on Friday after winning this week's election.

In a rare show of unity, party leaders say they "cannot accept the repeated statements about the annexation of Greenland."

Greenland's political parties, urged by the Democrats after electoral gains, are called to unite against U.S. annexation claims. Pro-business leader Jens-Frederik Nielsen emphasized the urgency, advocating for independence.
