On 8 February 2021 the Democrats left the coalition following disagreement with the new leadership of Siumut over a proposed open-pit mine near the town of Narsaq.[2][3][4] Some of their responsibilities were distributed among the remaining members of the cabinet. An early election was called following the 2021 opening of the national assembly, which was held on 6 April 2021.[5]
