In a historic shift, voters overwhelmingly supported two center-right, pro-independence parties in Tuesday's election, resulting in a major parliament overhaul.

Greenland's centre-right opposition has won a surprise general election victory - in a vote dominated by independence and US President Donald Trump's pledge to take over the semi-autonomous territory. The Democratic party, which favours a gradual approach to independence from Denmark - achieved around 30% of the vote, near-complete results show.

Elections in Greenland don't tend to draw much outside attention. President Donald Trump's expansionist designs on it have changed that.
