Snippet:
Greenland has suddenly become the focus of global politics. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly made it clear that he wants to "own" Greenland. For the Inuit, however, the land in the Arctic belongs to no one. Property is shared collectively, and this is regulated by law: People can own houses, but not the land on which they stand.
