Anders Vistisen, a Danish member of the European Parliament, has told U.S. President Donald Trump to "f*** off" after Trump again expressed interest in purchasing the island of Greenland. Newsweek has contacted the White House and Vistisen for comment via email.

A Danish Member of the European Parliament had some pointed words for President Donald Trump. As he did during his first term, Trump has expressed interest in attempting to acquire Greenland – the large and autonomous Danish territory between Canada and Iceland. Politicians in Denmark and Greenland have said the territory is not for sale.

President-elect Donald Trump plans significant foreign policy changes, including acquiring Greenland, reassessing NATO's role, and imposing tariffs on Mexico and Canada. Trump aims to reshape U.S. alliances and economic strategies with a focus on national security and trade.

What if Denmark invoked Article 5?

President-elect Donald Trump's recent comments on Greenland has put the world's largest island, a district of Denmark, to the top of many foreign policy discussions. Experts weigh in on its importance to US national security.

It may be too extreme for Canada or Denmark to view the U.S. as an enemy in the wake of Trump annexation threats, but the line between enmity and amity is currently blurred.

Former supreme allied commander James Stavridis called the territory ‘a strategic goldmine for the United States.’

President Trump said Denmark will “come along” on the potential sale of Greenland and emphasized the U.S. and others need the Arctic island to fortify international security in the region.

Greenland’s prime minister weighed in on President-elect Trump’s proposal to acquire the island territory, arguing that the nation intends to keep working toward independence from Denmark.

Trump’s concern about the Far North is a legitimate one; he is right to seek a more robust defense against potential Chinese or Russian operations in that region.

While Greenland’s Prime Minister claims the territory is not for sale, any future trajectory of Trump’s proposition could have serious ramifications on the transatlantic partnership
