Denmark Trump Greenland

Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen speaks to the media on Aug. 21, 2019, in front of the State Department in Copenhagen after the cancellation of a visit by U.S. President Donald Trump. A day earlier, after Frederiksen had dismissed the notion of selling Greenland to the U.S. as "an absurd discussion," Trump announced his decision to postpone a visit to Denmark via tweet.
