Denmark's King Frederik is in Greenland to show his support amid the geopolitical battle embroiling the island.

According to Danish media, Frederik emphasized that the well-being of Greenlanders is close to his heart.

It always has, and always will, he said after a meeting with Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen.

Later on Wednesday, the King will also visit Arctic Command, the Danish military command in Greenland.

According to DR, the fact that the King is taking a flight to the island, and not the royal ship Dannebrog, is unusual and shows that the visit is of greater importance than just a normal royal visit.
