Greenland undecided on genocide verdict after forced contraception reviews
TL;DR
Two expert panels on Denmark's forced contraception in Greenland produced divergent conclusions: one said Inuit women's rights were violated but stopped short of genocide, the other found no genocidal intent; Greenland's justice minister cautioned that a final genocide ruling cannot be made. Denmark apologized and a reconciliation process plus compensation were announced, and officials say they will work together while debate continues on whether the acts meet the Genocide Convention.
