Danish member of the EU Parliament Anders Vistisen dropped an F-bomb to Donald Trump over his desire to take ownership of Greenland, insisting the autonomous island terrirtoy is "not for sale."

Anders Vistisen, a right-wing Danish lawmaker, criticized President Donald Trump during a meeting of the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Tuesday, dropping an "f-bomb" while insisting that Greenland is "not for sale."

Greenland is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark and is, alongside the Faroe Islands, the only other autonomous territory within the Kingdom. Citizens of both Greenland and the Faroe Islands are full citizens of Denmark. As one of the Overseas Countries and Territories of the European Union, Greenland’s citizens are also recognized as EU citizens.

Although geographically part of the North American continent, Greenland has maintained strong political and cultural ties to Europe—specifically to Norway and Denmark, its historical colonial powers—for over a millennium.

The United States has long recognized Greenland's strategic importance. In 1946, the U.S. even proposed purchasing Greenland from Denmark, offering $100 million in gold as part of the deal—and while that never panned out, the world is nervously watching President Trump since he voiced his desire for territorial expansion, calling "the ownership and control of Greenland" an "absolute necessity."

Vistisen addressed the matter with the following statement before his colleagues in Parliament:

"Dear President Trump, listen very carefully. Greenland have been part of the Danish kingdom for 800 years. It’s an integrated part of our country."
"It is not for sale. Let me put it in words you might understand. Mr. Trump, f**k off."

Vistisen’s message drew a rebuke from Nicolae Stefanuta, the European Parliament's vice president:

“If the translation was correct, the term you used is not allowed in this house and there will be consequences to the message you have used. It is not OK in this house of democracy. Thank you."
"Regardless of what we think of Mr. Trump, it is not possible to use such language.”

However, Vistisen was unapologetic and later shared the clip of his remarks to his own social media followers, writing:

"Greenland is not for sale. Greenland has been part of Denmark for 800 years, more then double of the time the US has existed. Any true patriot should understand that this is an uacceptable attack on national sovereignty!"

Many online agreed with his remarks and criticized Trump themselves.


So says Greenland and Denmark, and so say we all

All world leaders: Treat Donald Trump like the stupid, petulant child that he is. Don't let up, ever. Humiliate him to no end.

This is exactly how to handle him. No minced words. No ambiguity.
— Caleb (@calebmaxx.bsky.social) January 22, 2025 at 1:25 AM


They should ban him and all of his family and connections from Greenland and from Denmark.

Maybe not the most diplomatic speech 😜 by our Danish MEP, but then again the recipient is the worst of bullies so maybe it’s language than he understands

No country or territory should be up for sale. Greenlanders should tell Napoleon Bonespur to f*ck off.

Last week, Fox News reporter Alex Hogan made an awkward admission about how Greenlanders feel about Trump's threats, noting that "most" don't support or appreciate his push to take control of it.

Hogan noted in her report that there had been a “mixed reaction” to Trump's proposal and began by highlighting an interview with Jørgen Boassen, an enthusiastic Trump supporter decked out in Trump merchandise. Boassen described Greenland as the “front door” to the U.S. and suggested the island might require protection from powers like Russia and China.

Fox then aired clips of several interviewees expressing a preference to remain under Denmark's governance, including one man who said "I hate it and don't know what he's aiming at" and another who said "I want to stick with the Danish government."

Hogan admitted that most people "do not support Trump's comments and find them offensive."

Greenland's Prime Minister Mute Egede also shut down Trump's stated goal of purchasing the island territory, stressing that "Greenland and the future of Greenland will be decided by the Greenlandic people, and the Greenlandic people don’t want to be Danes, the Greenlandic people don’t want to be Americans."

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
