PoulM Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 The Danish Radio news website has an article with the following headline: Greenlandic Women: Royal Visit sends a Strong Message Crown Priincess Mary visiting Greenland to spotlight violence against women in Greenland. The two Greenlandic ladies, Arnajaraq Bertelsen and Dorte Møller Platuu from Nuuk, discuss the importance of CPM visiting Greenland. Arnajaraq appreciates the time CPM spends helping victims of violence. She characterizes CPM as a role model especially because CPM is a Danish woman. "She is like a sister to us", states Arnajaraq Bertelsen.
