Blackout in Nuuk: Greenland's Capital Plunged into Darkness

Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, has been plunged into darkness due to a widespread blackout. The energy company Nukissiorfiit announced that the outage was due to an 'accident,' without providing further details.

Technical crews are working to restore power using backup systems.

The blackout occurs just days after the visit of Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen to Greenland, where she expressed Denmark's support for the autonomous region. The visit followed a period of discussions regarding the future of Greenland, including references to negotiations with US President Donald Trump.
