Summary
A YouGov poll found that 46% of Danes view the US as a major threat, surpassing concerns about North Korea and Iran but trailing Russia (86%).
Additionally, 78% oppose selling Greenland to the US, though 72% believe Greenland should decide its own fate.
The poll follows heightened tensions over Trump’s repeated claims that acquiring Greenland is an “absolute necessity” for US economic security.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has sought European unity in response, warning of shifting relations with the US.

YouGov is a poll that pays points pr. poll. These points can be used to buy actual products or gift cards worth real money. Lots of people click through them without reading the questions.
They sometimes add “click option 2 to verify that you’ve read the question”, but even then it’s likely that some percentages just click the right option by chance. On a short poll like this, they probably didn’t even do the check.
72% would let Greenland have the decision some of them might not want to give their own opinion or simple don’t have one
22% think the pollster is a CIA operative. 6% can’t wait to become a fascist Andorian hellscape because surely they’ll be billionaires then.
Some of them might not be sure or not care. A small percentage of around 5 percent can always be found to support pretty much anything in amy type of poll
