Bloomberg reported on the US plan to open a new consulate in Greenland

The United States is planning to open a new consulate building in the capital of Greenland amid protests by local residents. This was reported by Bloomberg on May 21.

"Protests are planned in the capital of Greenland, the opening of a new American consulate increases concerns about Washington's plans for the island," the article says.

According to the agency, the US Consulate building will be officially opened in Nuuk on May 21. According to Kenneth Howery, the American Ambassador to Denmark, the mission's goal is to bring the United States and Greenland closer together. Despite the fact that Washington restored its diplomatic presence in Nuuk in 2020, until that time, American officials were stationed in facilities run by the Danish military.

Howery added that the new venue will host official visits, meetings of business delegations and cultural events. It will also provide support to visiting Americans and visa services to residents of Greenland.
