Denmark's Prime Minister responds to Trump's bid to buy Greenland as Don Jr. arrives in the territory
Greenland is not for sale, insists Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.
Donald Trump Jr. landed in chilly, arctic island territory on Tuesday morning for a surprise trip amid his father's latest threats to purchase it from Denmark.
But Frederiksen said on Tuesday that Greenland's Prime Minister Múte Egede 'has been very, very clear' that they don't intend to become part of the U.S.
'There is a lot of support among the people of Greenland that Greenland is not for sale and will not be in the future either,' Frederiksen insisted.
While multiple people said Don Jr.'s trip to Greenland is 'personal' and not political, the president-elect noted how his son was joined by his 'representatives.'
Trump also made it clear that his son's trip is intended to further his goal of the U.S. purchasing Greenland.
But the chairman of one of the largest political parties in Greenland denied a meeting with Don Jr. and reiterated that Greenland is not up for grabs.
Siumut party leader Erik Jensen told the press: 'I can confirm that I have not planned to meet with him. I say it again that Greenland is not for sale and never will be.'
'Everyone is welcome to visit our country, including Trump,' he added. 'When the future president's son, who is also his own advisor, shows interest in our country, it means that Greenland is serious.'
Don Jr. posted multiple videos and photos from Greenland on Tuesday morning.

But President-elect Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday a post that suggests the trip is political by noting his 'representatives' went to Greenland with his eldest son
James Blair joins him on the visit to Greenland. Blair is incoming as deputy chief of staff for legislative, political and public affairs for Trump's second presidential term. He was the 2024 campaign's political director and oversaw a ground game seeking to reach low-propensity voters.
Also on the trip are conservative Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and Sergio Gor, with whom Don Jr. co-owns Winning Team Publishing.
And Trump made it clear on his social media site that the trip is meant to move forward his intentions to have the U.S. buy Greenland in his second term.
'Don Jr. and my Reps landing in Greenland,' Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday. 'The reception has been great. They, and the Free World, need safety, security, strength, and PEACE!'
'This is a deal that must happen,' he insisted. 'MAGA. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!'
During lunch with community members in Nuuk, Greenland, Don Jr. put his father on speakerphone so he could have a quick word with the locals.
Sources told DailyMail.com ahead of the trip that Don planned to shoot video and podcasting content and insisted he is not meeting with any government officials or political figures.
Some reports suggested the president-elect's oldest son was visiting at the request of Jensen, who is Greenland's minister of finance and supports the independence of Greenland.
Jensen now denies he intends to meet with Don.
Don Jr. posted images of himself and Charlie Kirk and Sergio Gor in front of the statue of Hans Egede, the Danish-Norwegian missionary who led mission efforts in Greenland during the late 1700s. Don Jr. also posted an image of the runway staff at the airport in Greenland
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen made it clear that its territory Greenland is not for sale

Donald Trump Jr visits Greenland amid father’s interest in owning island
Donald Trump Jr touched down in Greenland on Tuesday, hours after his father reiterated his interest in taking control of the Arctic autonomous territory, pledging to “make Greenland great again”.
After arriving in the Greenlandic capital in a Trump-branded plane, he told a waiting crowd in the Nuuk airport arrivals hall – some wearing red Make America Great Again caps – that he was “very excited to be here”. It was, he said, “a little colder here than it is in Florida”, adding that the US president-elect “says hello to everyone in Greenland”.
Asked about his plans, he said he was visiting as a tourist, had no plans to meet politicians and declined to talk about US interest in Greenland, saying he was merely there to “see a lot of the sights, talk to some people and have a good time”.
He was later pictured outside a controversial statue of Hans Egede, a Danish-Norwegian missionary who is seen as a symbol of Danish colonialism.
Trump Jr said in a podcast that aired on Monday that he was “not buying Greenland” but that he was going on a “very long, personal day trip”. He added: “I’m hopping on Trump Force One and landing in Greenland tomorrow morning.”
Nevertheless, his arrival in the capital, Nuuk, prompted the Danish prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, to break her silence to say the autonomous territory was “not for sale”. “Seen through the eyes of the Danish government, Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders,” the Social Democrat told TV2.
Describing the US as “our absolute closest ally”, she said “we always want to work more closely with the Americans”. But she called on “everyone to respect that Greenlanders are a people, a population,” adding: “Only they can define their future.”
The visit is taking place against the backdrop of escalating tensions between Greenland and Denmark as the Trump administration prepares to take office.
Greenland is a former Danish colony and remains part of the kingdom of Denmark, which continues to control its foreign and security policy.
As well as its supply of multiple in-demand raw materials for green technology – including 25 of the 34 that the EU needs – amid melting Arctic ice and strategically positioned between the US and Russia, Greenland is viewed as increasingly important for defence and emerging as an international geopolitical battleground.
The Danish King Frederik shocked some historians with a new year move to change the royal coat of arms to more prominently feature Greenland and the Faroe Islands, which was also seen as a rebuke to Trump’s advances.
A meeting between the Greenlandic prime minister, Múte Egede, and the king, scheduled to take place on Wednesday in Denmark, was cancelled on Monday without explanation. The royal house has since put it down to “calendar gymnastics”.
Trump Jr has said he is visiting the vast island in a private capacity and as a tourist. Others in his group include the political activist Charlie Kirk, who cofounded the pro-Trump conservative organisation Turning Point USA.
“We want to meet people,” the president-elect’s son said in his podcast, Triggered. “They seem like a great bunch of people.”
The Greenlandic government said no meetings had been scheduled with government representatives. The Danish and Greenlandic governments have both said it is a private visit.
“We have not been briefed on the nature of his programme, and therefore this is a private visit,” Mininnguaq Kleist, Greenland’s minister of independence and foreign affairs, told Reuters. He added that Trump Jr was expected to land at about 1300 GMT and stay for about four to five hours.
In a statement, Greenland’s ministry of foreign affairs said: “Greenland is open and those who wish to visit us are welcome.”
Greenland, an autonomous territory of Denmark with a population of just 57,000, boasts mineral, oil and natural gas wealth. But development has been slow, leaving its economy reliant on fishing and annual subsidies from Denmark.
The capital, Nuuk, is closer to New York than to the Danish capital, Copenhagen.
Trump, who takes office on 20 January, said his son and various representatives were going to visit “some of the most magnificent areas and sights”.
On his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump praised the island and promised to “MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!”
“Greenland is an incredible place, and the people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation,” he wrote.
Trump expressed interest in buying Greenland during his 2017-2021 term but was publicly rebuffed by Greenlandic and Danish authorities before any conversations could take place.
Over recent months, tensions have escalated significantly between Greenland and Denmark. There is intense anger in Greenland over investigations into the forced contraceptive scandal of the 1960s and 70s, prompting the Greenlandic prime minister to accuse Denmark of genocide. There are also continuing protests in Copenhagen and Nuuk over the separation of Greenlandic children from their parents.
Last week, Egede stepped up a push for independence from Denmark in his new year speech, saying he wanted it to break free from “the shackles of colonialism” to shape its own future, although he did not mention the US.
Aaja Chemnitz, a Greenlandic member of the Danish parliament, said the idea of a US takeover should be firmly rejected. “I don’t want to be a pawn in Trump’s hot dreams of expanding his empire to include our country,” she said.
Two weeks ago, Trump said on Truth Social that “the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity”.

Denmark's king changes coat of arms with a message for Trump in his bid to buy Greenland
If Donald Trump thinks prying away Greenland from Denmark will be easy, King Frederik sent a message with a big club and a Polar Bear to disabuse him of the notion.
Frederik, who succeeded the Danish throne after the abdication of Queen Margrethe II last year, has released a new coat of arms that reaffirms his kingdom's longtime claim the territory.
The territory has been under Denmark's effective control since the 14th Century, but Donald Trump has once again revealed his interest in the U.S. buying or obtaining the territory, which lies between Canada and Scandanavia.
The new royal coat of arms released by the crown dispenses with a historic use of three crowns to representing the historic union of Scandanavian nations.
Instead, the new coat of arms shows an enlarged Polar Bear, as well as a ram signifying its dominion over the Faroe Islands, a self-governing part of the Kingdom.
A pair of Nordic men with ripped physiques now hold fatter and more prominent clubs – a Danish version of Teddy Roosevelt's 'speak softly and carry a big stick' rejoinder. The men are slightly more broad-shouldered, with bigger pectoral muscles, a wider torso, and taller stance, plus a bit more hair.
The Polar Bear, in addition being displayed larger, has a long menacing red tongue.
Word of the redesign spread on a day when Trump once again asserted his intention to expand the nation – after bringing back both his ambitions for Greenland and threatening to retake the Panama Canal in a pre-Christmas message complaining about 'ridiculous' fees.
The new flag issued by the King Frederik features a more prominent Polar Bear, in a signal of keeping Greenland within the realm. Two nordic men are also drawn as more more musclar and are brandishing bigger clubs
Trump has said it is an 'absolute necessity' to acquire the island.
He also also referenced ways to forge an expanded empire by issuing repeat statements about making Canada the 51st state.
The symbolic statement of dominion over Greenland, a self-governing territory of Denmark and former colony, comes despite a separatist movement there.
Greenland's Prime Minister Mute Egede gave a New Year's speech where he said 'we must work to remove the obstacles to cooperation – which we can describe as the shackles of colonialism – and move forward.'
'It is about time that we ourselves take a step and shape our future, also with regard to who we will cooperate closely with, and who our trading partners will be,' he added.

Egede has rejected Trump's offers to buy the island of 836,330 square miles (larger than Alaska) in 2019 and again last year. 'Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale,' Egede has said.
'It is important to signal from the Danish side that Greenland and the Faroe Islands are part of the Danish realm, and that this is not up for discussion. This is how you mark it,' Royal expert Lars Hovbakke Sørensen told TV2.
Trump continued to use the language of expansion as recently as Monday in an interview with Hugh Hewitt where he vowed to 'un-ban' President Biden's new protections of millions of acres of offshore lands from drilling.
Speaking about the wealth of U.S. energy resources, Trump said: 'You know, we have something that nobody else has. I mean, nobody has, to the extent we have it, and it'll be more by the time we finish, because I'll be able to expand, you know, we're going to expand our country,' Trump said.
