According to German news outlet t-online, which cited the show’s production company, Greenland authorities fined Schafroth over the stunt. In a video circulating on social media, Schafroth can be seen wearing a suit and being confronted by locals, one of whom tells him what he is doing is illegal. “You’re right,” Schafroth replies, adding: “I wanted to make a deal, but it didn’t work. Olsen said raising the flag of a military superpower that has “for weeks been implying military force against our country” was no joke. Intent does not outweigh impact.”NDR told German media that Greenlanders hadn’t been the target of the satire and expressed regret.
