Summary
Jens-Frederik Nielsen said Wednesday that Greenland is “not for sale,” directly rebuffing Donald Trump after he renewed his push to control the Arctic territory.
Trump raised the demand at a NATO summit in Ankara, prompting Nielsen to answer publicly on Facebook that repeated calls for a takeover would not change Greenland’s position.
The exchange keeps focus on Greenland’s strategic Arctic importance and underscores the island government’s refusal to entertain any transfer of control.
