Greenland's Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the island was not looking for a buyer.
According to the reports, Trump has repeatedly asked advisers and his White House counsel to explore the possibility of acquiring the 811,000-square-mile island in the North Atlantic, which belongs to Denmark and is home to about 56,000 people.
The office of Greenland's Premier Kim Kielsen also pushed back on the idea of a sale:"We have a good cooperation with U.S.A., and we see it as an expression of greater interest in investing in our country and the possibilities we offer," the office said in a statement."Of course, Greenland is not for sale. Because of the unofficial nature of the news, the government of Greenland has no further comments.
