What were the key results of the Greenlandic election, and what immediate impacts do they have on Greenland's political landscape and its relationship with Denmark?

Greenland's ruling coalition, Inuit Ataqatigiit (IA) and Siumut, suffered a significant loss, dropping from 60 percent of the vote to 32 percent, losing half their seats in parliament. Demokraatit, a social-liberal party advocating for gradual independence, emerged victorious, gaining 21 percentage points (from 9 percent to 30 percent) and increasing their parliamentary seats from three to ten. Naleraq, the only party pushing for immediate independence from Denmark, also saw a substantial increase, rising from 12 percent to 25 percent.
