Greenland wants to ban receiving contributions from foreign or anonymous donors, according to a bill unveiled Monday, amid statements of US President Donald Trump to acquire the autonomous Danish territory.
The law is intended to "safeguard the political integrity of Greenland", according to the text of the bill.
Since Trump put forward the idea of the United States acquiring the Arctic island, its leaders have repeated that it is not for sale but "open" for business.
It also states that the proposal should be seen “in light of geopolitical interests in Greenland and the current situation, where representatives of an allied great power have expressed interest in taking over and controlling Greenland.”
The bill comes ahead of upcoming parliamentary elections in Greenland, which must be held no later than April 6th.
If passed the law will apply to political parties as well as their local and youth branches. The ban will also apply to members of the parliament and their substitutes, as well as individuals running in upcoming elections for parliament, the bill states.
Additionally, the law would prohibit political parties from receiving private donations exceeding 200,000 kroner in total or individual donations over 20,000 kroner.
