Boulder, Colorado
A major Arctic Vigyan Conference was caught this week in the fight between US President Donald Trump, which says that the United States should handle Greenland, and Greenlandic and Danish leaders, who say it should not happen.

Greenland is an international research center for many scientists, including climate researchers, who fans in the ice sheet of the island in each summer, measuring how it is melting and contributing to the rising levels of the sea worldwide.
The organizers of the Arctic Science Summit Week at Colorado’s boulder, further canceled a major session on research in Greenland, ahead of a planned trip by American Vice President JD Vance for an American military base in Greenland this week, which took place on 28 March.
The organizers of the conference did not give the reason for publicly canceling, but geopolitical tension between the United States, where the meeting is being held, and Greenland was in the air. More than 50 attendees gathered in a circle outside the conference site on 26 March and showed the red and white flag of Greenland, indicating, an autonomous, self-zero area of Denmark.
Carim Hastnes Nisanyoglu, a climate scientist at Bergon University, Norway, says, “We want to show our support back to our friends and colleagues in Greenland, especially when it is very stressful in these times,” says Kerim Hastain Nisanoglu, a climatic scientist at Bergon University, Norway, who helped to organize the demonstration of one -sided manner.
Tension tension
Trump has said that the United States will have Greenland either through a financial deal or through military force, which points to the valuable Earth minerals of the island and its location is strategic for national security and business objectives. This attitude has disturbed scientific relations between the United States and Greenland. “We have very good relationships with Greenland, they have real interest in working with the US – and these aggressive and inappropriate action have been really disastrous,” says an American scientist who has worked in Greenland for nearly two decades and who has requested anonymity for fear of vengeance.

Many researchers from Greenland refused to speak Nature At the conference, citing political stress.
In recent years, many international scientists who travel to Greenland to conduct research, worked there to create a tight, more moral bond with communities and institutions there. It used to be that researchers would arrive and operate ‘Parachute Science’ without partnering with any local, a graduate student at Aurra Roth, La Jola, Oceanography’s scrips institution in California, says a graduate student in Greenland, a graduate student at the scripts institution. Trump’s game for Greenland has disturbed those better bonds, she says. “Now you have current geopolitics, and it embarrasses me to become an American researcher.”
