Donald Trump Jr has arrived in Greenland, two weeks after his father repeated his desire for the US to take control of the autonomous Danish territory.
Before his arrival in the capital Nuuk, the US president-elect's son said he was going as a tourist on a "very long, personal, day-trip", to talk to people, and had no meetings planned with government officials.
Ahead of his son's trip, Donald Trump revived a controversy he ignited last month when he said "ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity" for US national security.
During his first term as president, Trump had expressed an interest in buying the Arctic island. He has been rebuffed by Greenland's leaders on both occasions.
