Greenland targets tourism influx after Trump's takeover bid ‘The world’s eyes are on us’ says Greenland tourist board.
Hjörtur Smárason, the director of Visit Greenland, said in 2021 that “Greenland had so many unique experiences to offer tourists, and if we want more of them, then the message and knowledge must be spread even more than it is today.
Greenland hopes it can use some of the attention it has been getting for an influx of American tourists amid US President Donald Trump’s comments on wanting to take over the territory.
