Danish prime minister has blunt message for Trump: Greenland is not for sale

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen emphasized that Greenland is not for sale, as President-elect Trump has ramped up calls for the U.S. to acquire the island.

Frederiksen's comments to a Danish TV station come as the president's son, Donald Trump Jr., paid a visit to Greenland on Tuesday. The trip is a personal one and Trump Jr. is not expected to meet with any government officials.

The Danish prime minister said in an interview that Greenlandic Prime Minister Múte Egede "has been very, very clear – that there is a lot of support among the people of Greenland that Greenland is not for sale and will not be in the future either," according to The Hill............

Well, maybe we could trade Puerto Rico. It could be a nice place for the Danes to vacation. /s

"Danish prime minister has blunt message for Trump: Greenland is not for sale"

That's not a blunt message.

That message says "It better be a really good offer!"

A blunt message is far less friendly.

Fox left out the part where the Danish FM essentially started making concessions before even sitting down with the US. In the short to medium term, Trump doesn't really need to annex Greenland to get what he wants. He can get the same through treaties and other formal agreements.

"I don't think that we're in a foreign policy crisis," he (Denmark's Foreign Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen) said. "We are open to a dialogue with the Americans on how we can possibly cooperate even more closely than we do to ensure that the American ambitions are fulfilled."
