Canada and France opened diplomatic consulates on Friday in the capital of Greenland, showing support for NATO ally Denmark and the Arctic island in the wake of U.S. efforts to secure control of the semiautonomous Danish territory.

Canada’s maple-leaf flag went up and dozens of people sang “O Canada” as Foreign Minister Anita Anand officially opened the country’s consulate in Nuuk, which is also the largest city of the icy Arctic island.

Canada pledged to open a consulate in Greenland in 2024, before Trump’s recent talk of a takeover, and the formal inauguration was delayed from November because of bad weather.
