In brief
2 in 3 Greenlanders support independence in 2 decades to come
Only 38% would vote “yes” if a referendum were to be held tomorrow
However, the study points out that a mere 38% of Greenlanders have already made the decision to vote “yes” to independence in the case of a referendum held tomorrow. 33% would vote against, while 29% are undecided. The perception that Greenland could not yet sustain itself alone —a part of its annual budget comes from a Danish grant— is still widespread among islanders.
When asked about the hypothesis of a referendum within 10 years, 46% say they would vote for independence, while 21% would reject it.
