SiumutDuring the election, former Siumut president Kim Kielsen made it clear that he did not see the question of party presidency as settled. Even though Kielsen remained quiet, letting Jensen work, before the election was called, Kielsen has fought to make a comeback as president since then. Stating that Siumut’s voters now had the chance to make their opinion count through personal votes, Kielsen had openly challenged Jensen.Kielsen came in first with 1,841 votes, while Jensen could only muster 1,186 votes. A massive difference that could very well see Kielsen return as party president.Also noteworthy is the results for two newcomers. Aslak Wilhelm Jensen (814 votes) and Qarsoq Høegh-Dam (796 votes) thundered into parliament, while known quantities like Vivian Motzfeldt (237) and Anders Olsen (199) come in a distant 5th and 6th.
Inuit AtaqatigiitIA has presented a number of costly proposals aimed at increasing the standard of living in Greenland. However, IA has very clearly stated that they want to stop the Kuannersuit project on its principal opposition to uranium mining.In addition, IA wants to pause airport construction outside of Nuuk for a undefined period of time, due to increased construction costs, (though the costs are still well within operating margins).Both of these positions will reduce expected revenue streams for Greenland in at least the short to medium term.Thus, IA will be hard pressed to find new sources of revenue, if they wish to deliver on the promises made during the election campaign.IA has won the election and will seek to form a coalition. Now Greenland, international investors and great powers alike will be waiting to see exactly what IA hopes to accomplish through that coalition and what course the party sets for the future of Greenland.
