Trump Seeks to Purchase Greenland Amid Uncertain Negotiations
ai generated text
Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed interest in purchasing Greenland, a self-ruling territory of Denmark. In 2019, he offered to buy the world's largest island, claiming that US ownership and control of Greenland is an "absolute necessity" for national security. Trump's comments sparked a heated debate, with Greenland's elected leader, Prime Minister Mute Egede, firmly stating that "Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale." This stance was reiterated in 2020, with Egede warning that "we must not lose our long struggle for freedom." Trump's latest comments on Greenland come as he announced the appointment of Ken Howery as the US ambassador to Copenhagen.
Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale. We must not lose our long struggle for freedom.
Ken will do a wonderful job in representing the interests of the United States.
For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.
