Danish PM says Greenland ‘not for sale’ as Donald Trump Jr visits island

Before his son’s ‘private’ visit, President-elect Donald Trump again says he wants Greenland to ‘become part of’ the US.

Donald Trump Jr has arrived in Greenland for a “private” visit, as his father President-elect Donald Trump reiterates his desire to make the autonomous Danish territory part of the United States.

Since the younger Trump’s visit to the sprawling Arctic island on Tuesday was not official, he is not expected to meet with any Greenlandic or Danish officials.

But the trip has nevertheless sparked speculation that the president-elect would make a push to buy Greenland when he takes office on January 20.

Trump further fuelled the conjecture late Monday on his Truth Social account.

“I am hearing that the people of Greenland are ‘MAGA'”, Trump wrote, referring to the Make America Great Again movement. “My son, Don Jr, and various representatives, will be traveling there to visit some of the most magnificent areas and sights.”
