Greenland’s prime minister, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, and Múte B Egede, the foreign minister, received a hero’s welcome(英雄般的欢迎) when they landed back in Nuuk(努克，格陵兰首府) from New York on Wednesday night – and a nation took a collective sigh of relief(集体松了一口气).
周三晚间，格陵兰总理延斯-弗雷德里克·尼尔森和外交部长穆特·B·埃格德从纽约返回努克时，受到了英雄般的欢迎——整个国家都集体松了一口气。
Colleagues, friends and members of the public turned out to greet them at an airport where, just 20 months ago, the landing of a Trump-branded plane containing Donald Trump Jr had kickstarted a geopolitical crisis that the people of Greenland now hope is over.(同事、朋友和公众纷纷来到机场迎接他们。就在20个月前，一架印有特朗普品牌标志、载着小唐纳德·特朗普的飞机正是降落在同一个机场，由此引发了一场地缘政治危机，而格陵兰人民现在希望这场危机已经结束。)

To cheers and applause, and waving red and white Erfalasorput(格陵兰语“我们的旗帜”) flags, the politicians were credited with(被誉为，被归功于) saving the nation thanks to a new defence agreement between Greenland, Denmark and the US signed this week at the UN in New York. It comes after an unprecedented period of turbulence in which Donald Trump repeatedly threatened to invade the Arctic island and almost tore apart Nato in the process.(此前经历了一段前所未有的动荡时期，唐纳德·特朗普多次威胁要入侵这座北极岛屿，并在此过程中几乎撕裂了北约。)
在欢呼和掌声中，政客们挥舞着红白相间的“埃法拉斯普特”格陵兰旗帜，因本周在纽约联合国签署的格陵兰、丹麦与美国新防务协议而被誉为拯救了国家。此前经历了一段前所未有的动荡时期，唐纳德·特朗普多次威胁要入侵这座北极岛屿，并在此过程中几乎撕裂了北约。
