The historic second presidential term by Donald J. Trump has begun, and the disruption it is already causing many adversaries to lose their minds over his bold plans.
When it comes to Trump’s ambitions regarding Greenland, it is no different.
A Danish Member of the European Parliament (MEP) went overboard today (22) and sent Trump a direct and foul-mouthed warning over Greenland – including a nasty four-letter word.
Trump has been adamant about the need by the US to either purchase or take over by force the ‘strategically located’ island, which is presently an autonomous territory of NATO and EU member Denmark.
Daily Mail reported:
“Addressing the 47th President of the United States, right-wing MEP Anders Vistisen responded to his statements: ‘Dear President Trump, listen very carefully. Greenland has been part of the Danish kingdom for 800 years [sic]. It’s an integrated part of our country. It is not for sale.’ In case his message wasn’t clear, Vistisen added pointedly: ‘Let me put it in words you might understand, Mr. Trump. [F*ck] off’.”

An EU official criticized the lawmaker over his coarse language, warning there will be consequences to the message he has used.
Vistisen wrote on X that he European Parliament threatened to fine him over his expletive-laden speech.
“’Fines if you tell the truth about foreigners and crime! Fines if you tell the truth about the Greenlanders! Fines if you tell the truth to Trump!’ he wrote on X. Sharing video of the unorthodox exchange on social media, Vistisen said that Greenland has been a sovereign territory of Denmark for ‘more [than] double the time the US has existed.’ He added: ‘Any true patriot should understand that this is an unacceptable attack on national sovereignty!’
On his return to the Oval Office Trump on Monday, Trump reiterated previous statements that the US should acquire Greenland for ‘international security.’ ‘Greenland is a wonderful place. We need it for international security. And I’m sure that Denmark will come along — it’s costing them a lot of money to maintain it, to keep it,’ the Republican leader said.“
Greenland PM Múte Eegede is ready to negotiate with Trump.
The Danish king went as far as changing the royal coat of arms to feature Greenland more prominently.
A spokesperson for the European Commission declined to ‘go into the specifics’ of Trump’s plans, as many wonder how the EU would respond to a US attack on Greenland.
“’It is clear that the sovereignty of states has to be respected,’ spokesperson Anitta Hipper said. ‘There is no question of the EU letting other nations in the world, whoever they may be, attack its sovereign borders,’ French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot told the France Inter radio station. He added that while he did not believe the US ‘would invade’ Greenland ‘we have entered an era that is seeing the return of the law of the strongest’. ‘We are a strong continent, we need to strengthen ourselves further,’ he went on, warning that Europe needs to ‘wake up’ to the reality of an increasingly insecure world and ‘reinforce ourselves, militarily, in competition’.”
While Greenland is geographically part of the American continent, Greenland is politically linked with Norway and Denmark since the 9th Century.
