Danish MEP Condemns Trump’s Greenland Remarks

Danish MEP Anders Vistisen criticized former US President Donald Trump for suggesting the purchase of Greenland, calling it “unacceptable” during a European Parliament session in Strasbourg. Speaking in English, Vistisen said, “Greenland has been part of Denmark for 800 years. It is not for sale. Mr. Trump, go away.”

European Parliament Vice President Nicolae Stefanuta condemned Vistisen’s language, calling it inappropriate and warning of potential penalties. Vistisen later claimed on social media that he faced fines for “stating the truth.”

Earlier, Trump described Greenland as crucial for US national security and hinted at economic and strategic means to acquire it. Greenland’s Prime Minister Mute Egede responded firmly, stating, “The future of Greenland will be decided by Greenlanders, not by Americans or Danes.”
