Mariane Paviasen Jensen, a Greenland MP for the Inuit Ataqatigiit party and prominent environmentalist, has described a 60 Minutes Australia program shown on Channel Nine on August 10 as a “propaganda broadcast” for an Australian mining company and the United States President Donald Trump — who has publicly declared his intention to takeover Greenland “one way or another”.

Entitled “Why are China and the US fighting over Greenland's rare earths?”, the program promoted a giant rare earths and uranium open cut mine in Kuannersuit near Narsaq — Paviasen Jensen’s hometown — which has been proposed by Australian company Energy Transitions Minerals (ETM) but rejected by the Greenland government in 2023. The company is challenging this decision in Greenlandic and Danish courts.
