Greenland’s elected leader said the gigantic Arctic island is not for sale after Donald Trump once again raised the issue of “ownership and control” of the vast territory that has been part of Denmark for more than 600 years.
“Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale. We must not lose our long struggle for freedom,” Greenland’s prime minister, Múte Egede, said in a written comment.
The US president-elect on Sunday announced that he had picked Ken Howery, a former envoy to Sweden, as his ambassador to Copenhagen, and commented on the status of Greenland, a semi-autonomous part of Denmark.
“For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
For purposes of justice and lolz throughout the world, the People feel that ownership and control of Mar-a-Lago is an absolute necessity.
More that Greenland is a huge track of land that will likely be free of ice in the next decade, and is entirely untapped for minerals as well as oil and gas.
If we don’t stop extracting and burning oil and gas, we’re screwed as a species. But, let’s face it, we’ve stuck our heads in the sand, and decided to call climate change fake so boomers could make a few extra bucks before they kick the bucket.
Yes, it might also already be too late to revert the damage done. So the morons are going to go out as rich as possible
Huuuuge… tracts of land?
What… the curtains?
