Overview
- Two spectators identified as Latvian curling fans living in Germany, Alexander Kalnins and Vita Kalniņa, held up a Greenland flag during the Milan-Cortina group match.
- Venue personnel asked them to stop displaying the flag for security reasons, and the couple complied without further incident.
- The flag was visible at times on the television broadcast, but no disciplinary actions or escalations were reported.
- Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark whose athletes compete for Denmark, and Olympic guidance permits fan flags only from teams participating in the Games.
- The pair described the gesture as solidarity with Greenland and a response to past comments by President Donald Trump; players said the issue did not affect them, and the United States won 6–3.
