Greenland's Prime Minister asserts territory is not for sale after Trump's renewed proposal

President-elect Donald Trump has renewed his calls for the U.S. to buy Greenland from Denmark, a proposal he made during his first term. He stated that U.S. control of Greenland is essential for national security. Greenland's Prime Minister, Múte Bourup Egede, responded firmly, saying, "Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale." This follows Trump's previous failed attempt to visit Denmark after his 2019 offer was rejected. In addition to Greenland, Trump has suggested that the U.S. could reclaim control of the Panama Canal, which it relinquished in 1999. Panama's president asserted that the canal belongs to Panama, while Trump has expressed dissatisfaction with current shipping costs.
