  1. Donald Trump on Wednesday accused Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen of
    being ‘nasty’ when she said his plan to buy Greenland was ‘absurd.’

    The president told reporters on the South lawn her statement on the matter
    ‘was nasty’ during a 35-minute, free wheeling exchange that included his thoughts on gun background checks, Israel, the New York Times, China
    and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

    His remarks came after Frederiksen said earlier Wednesday she was
    ‘surprised’ at Trump’s decision to cancel
    his two-day visit. But her initial reaction on Monday – after the president
    publicly confirmed his interest in buying Greenland – was to call it ‘absurd.’

    Frederiksen was in Greenland on Monday to visit her counter part there when she
    said any talk of a sale was ‘an absurd discussion.’ 

    Trump showed his anger at her use of the word.  

    ‘I thought that the prime minister’s statement that it was absurd – that it was
    an absurd idea – was nasty. I thought it was
    an inappropriate statement. All she had to do is say no, we wouldn’t be interested,’
    he said.

    He repeatedly went back to her word ‘absurd’ when asked
    about American-Danish relations after officials refused to
    consider his offer to buy the world’s largest island – and
    complained Frederiksen could not treat the U.S. that way.  

    ‘She shouldn’t treat the United States that way. She said absurd.
    That’s not the right word to use. Absurd,’ he
    said of Frederiksen’s reaction to but Greenland, which is
    an autonomous Danish territory. 

    ‘I thought it was an inappropriate statement.
    All she had to do is say no, we wouldn’t be interested,’ he added.

    ‘I thought it was a very not nice way of saying something.
    They could have told me no,’ he said. ‘All they had to do is say, no, we would rather
    not do that or we would rather not talk about it. Don’t say
    what an absurd idea that is.’ 

    He accused her of insulting the United States with her response. 

    ‘She’s not talking to me,’ he said of Frederiksen. ‘She’s talking to the United States of America.
    You don’t talk to the United States that way.

    At least under me.’ 

    ‘I thought it was not a nice statement – the way she blew me off,’ he added later.
    ‘We’ve done a lot for Denmark.’

    Donald Trump accused the Danish prime minister of being
    ‘nasty’ when she said his plan to buy Greenland was ‘absurd’

    Trump originally said Greenland was not the reason for
    his trip to Denmark

    Trump also said he was not looking at purchasing land from other countries.

    ‘No,’ he said in response to a question from Dailymail.com.

    ‘Greenland was just an idea. Just a thought.

    But I think when they say it was absurd and it was said in a very nasty, very sarcastic way,
    I said we’ll make it some other time.’

    ‘I love Denmark. I’ve been to Denmark and, frankly, we’ll
    do it another time,’ he added. ‘Respect has to be shown to the United States.’ 

    He also noted he was not the first president to bring up the
    idea of buying Greenland.

    ‘The prime minister used a terrible word when talking about something we’ve been talking about for years,’ he said. 

    ‘This is something that has been discussed for many years.
    Harry Truman had the idea of Greenland. I had the idea.

    Other people have had the idea. It goes back into the early
    1900s. But Harry Truman very strongly thought it was
    a good idea. I think it is a good idea because Denmark is losing
    $700 million a year with it. It doesn’t do them any good,’ he
    noted. 

    Additionally, Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas,
    a close Trump ally on Capitol Hill, also is interested in purchasing
    Greenland.

    Cotton raised the idea in August 2018 when Danish Ambassador Lone
    Dencker Wisborg dropped by his Senate office,
    The Atlantic reported. Cotton also discussed the idea with Trump – although no time
    frame was given for when that conversation took place. 

    After his angry rant at Frederiksen, Trump then took to Twitter to complain Denmark is not paying enough
    in its NATO fees.

    Trump complained of the Danish prime minister’s calling his idea ‘absurd’ and
    said Frederiksen could not treat the U.S. that way

    ‘For the record, Denmark is only at 1.35% of
    GDP for NATO spending. They are a wealthy country and should be at 2%.
    We protect Europe and yet, only 8 of the 28 NATO countries are at the 2% mark.

    The United States is at a much, much higher level than that,’ he wrote.

    ‘Because of me, these countries have agreed to pay ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS
    more – but still way short of what they should pay for the
    incredible military protection provided. Sorry!,’ he added.

    Denmark agreed to raise its NATO contribution to 1.5 percent of its gross domestic product in 2023, up from
    1.35 percent it will pay this year, Danish officials said in January. 

    Trump’s cancelation comes as Barack Obama has made his own plans to visit Denmark.

    The former president will be at the Musikkens Hus (Music House) in the northern city Aalborg
    on September 28 for ‘A Conversation with President Barack Obama.’ The invitation-only event will be for business leaders but will also include around two hundred
    students from Aalborg University, Ritzau, a Danish news site. 

    The president has been vocal about his interest in obtaining Greenland
    but Frederiksen slammed his scouting efforts as ‘absurd’, saying the semi-autonomous island is not for sale. 

    The Danish prime minister also said she was ‘disappointed and surprised’ by Trump’s decision to cancel
    his upcoming state visit.

    Snubbed in his purchase offer, Trump, a former real estate tycoon, decided to postpone his meeting with Frederiksen, which was scheduled to
    take place in two weeks, in a dramatic last-minute decision announced on Twitter Tuesday night. 

    Queen Margrethe II and the royal household on Wednesday expressed surprise at the sudden cancellation, while other prominent Danish politicians described it as ‘deeply insulting’.

    that Trump’s cancellation was ‘deeply insulting’

    President Barack Obama, seen in Germany in April, will be in Denmark on September 28 to speak to business leaders and students

    Trump’s visit was originally seen as a thank you to the
    small northern European nation, which is a member of NATO and has supported the U.S.
    military missions in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.

    The country has seen 43 Danish troops members killed in those U.S.-led missions, which is
    a large number for a country of 5.5 million not used to participating in battle.

    His cancellation has now sparked worries of a diplomatic row but Frederiksen argued it would not harm
    relations between Copenhagen and Washington. 

    Frederiksen, who took office two months ago as Denmark’s second female head of government and the leader of the left-leaning
    Social Democratic Party, said relations between Copenhagen and
    Washington ‘are not in any crisis in my opinion’ after
    Trump canceled his plans to visit Denmark following her rejection of the sale.

    ‘I don’t believe that the cancellation should have any influence on other
    matters,’ she said. 

    She also confirmed Wednesday that ‘a discussion about a potential sale of Greenland has been put forward.’

    But she noted: ‘It has been rejected by Greenland Premier Kim Kielsen, and
    I fully stand behind that rejection’. 

    The prime minister said she was ‘disappointed and surprised’ by Trump’s
    decision to cancel his two-day stop in her country. 

    But she told reporters that ‘the invitation for a
    stronger strategic cooperation with the Americans in the
    Arctic is still open’.

    Former Danish government ministers were quick to speak out, with ex-foreign minister and head of the foreign affairs committee in parliament, Martin Lidegaard, telling Trump to ‘please stop’.

    He added to Danish broadcaster TV2 that it was
    ‘a diplomatic farce’ and added that Trump’s behavior
    was ‘grotesque’ and he was ‘throwing a hissy fit’.

    Helle Thorning-Schmidt, a former Danish Prime Minister, wrote on Twitter that Trump’s cancellation was ‘deeply
    insulting to the people of Greenland and Denmark’.

    The 811,000-square-mile island of icy terrain in the Atlantic inhabits about 56,000 people,
    and though it is technically in North American waters, the self-governing
    land is culturally European

    Trump tweeted Tuesday evening that he would postpone the meeting,
    originally scheduled during his September 2 and 3 state visit, ‘for
    another time’ because Frederiksen said Greenland was
    not for sale

    While another ex-finance minister, Kristian Jensen, went further
    describing it as ‘total chaos’ and adding: ‘This has
    gone from a great opportunity for a strengthened dialogue between allies to a diplomatic
    crisis.’

    Lene Balleby, head of communications for the Danish
    royal family, said: ‘It [the cancellation] was
    a surprise – we have nothing more to say about this case.’

    Frederiksen noted that preparations for the September
    2 and 3 visit were ‘well underway’. 

    ‘It is with regret and surprise that I received the news that
    President Trump has cancelled his state visit to Denmark on the second and
    third of September,’ she said. 

    ‘I had been looking forward to the visit, our preparations were well underway.
    It was an opportunity, I think, to celebrate Denmark’s close relationship to
    the US – who remains one of Denmark’s closest allies. 

    ‘I was looking forward to having a dialogue on the many shared interests we have
    with the US. 

    ‘Furthermore the development in the Arctic region called for further
    co-operation between the US, Greenland, the Faroe Islands and
    Denmark. And therefore I would like to underline our invitation for a stronger co-operation on Arctic
    affairs still stands. 

    Trump was prepared to take over Denmark’s annual
    $600 million subsidy to Greenland in perpetuity before he
    canceled his visit. 

    The president also had discussed giving Denmark a large one-time payment as well
    to help move the transaction along, senior administration officials told The Washington Post.  

    Greenland handles its own domestic affairs but Denmark covers its national security and foreign relations.
    The Danes also pay for 50 percent of the island’s budget in direct
    subsidies with additional spending on defense. 

    In total, Denmark spends about $740 million annually
    on Greenland.

    Frederiksen pointed out Greenland officials rejected
    the idea – a move she supported.

    ‘A discussion however has been raised about a potential sale of Greenland.
    This has clearly been rejected by Kim Kielsen, a position that I share of course,’ she
    said.

    ‘This does not change the character of our good relations and we will, of
    course, from Denmark continue an ongoing dialogue with the US on how we
    can develop our co-operation and deal with the many common challenges we are facing.’  

    Trump was invited by Denmark’s Queen Margrethe II for a state visit in Copenhagen in early September, which would have followed a
    stop in Warsaw, Poland, where the president will take
    part in a series of ceremonies in honor of the 80th anniversary of the start of World War II.

    First lady Melania Trump was to have accompanied him and dinner with the Queen was on the agenda.  

    The president initially claimed the visit wouldn’t be about a
    Greenland purchase, his sudden cancellation has cast doubts on the intentions of his trip.  

    A senior official told DailyMail.com last week that
    Trump was visiting Denmark because he was invited and not to purchase Greenland. 

    The senior official said that reports on Trump’s interest in buying the property were being ‘overblown,’ and
    the president was not entirely serious pursuing the sale. 

    However, Trump’s tweets challenged that.  

    ‘Denmark is a very special country with incredible people,
    but based on Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s
    comments, that she would have no interest in discussing the
    purchase of Greenland, I will be postponing our meeting scheduled in two weeks for another time….’ the president wrote on Twitter Tuesday night.

    ‘The Prime Minister was able to save a great deal of expense and effort
    for both the United States and Denmark by being so direct.

    I thank her for that and look forward to rescheduling sometime in the future!’ he added,
    digging at Frederiksen for spurning his interest in buying the island.  

    President Donald Trump has likened buying Greenland to
    ‘a large real estate deal’ after confirming interest in purchasing the
    world’s largest island from Denmark. It comes after Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Greenland was not for sale and
    the idea of selling it to the U.S. was absurd on Sunday

    His cancellation came just three hours after the US ambassador to Denmark tweeted: ‘Denmark is ready for the POTUS @realDonaldTrump visit!
