Trump Cancels Denmark Trip Because Greenland Is Not for Sale
特朗普取消了丹麥之行 只因格陵蘭島是非賣品
President Trump cancelled his upcoming trip to Denmark after the Danish prime minister told him that Greenland is not for sale. The US president had recently expressed interest in purchasing the country. Greenland is an autonomous Danish territory located east of the Canadian Arctic. While Trump had called a US purchase of Greenland a big real estate deal, the prime minister of Denmark called the idea absurd. In 1946, US president Harry Truman attempted to buy Greenland due to its strategic military location. As melting ice opens up shipping routes and allows resources to become more accessible, Trump has taken a renewed interest in the area.
特朗普總統取消了即將到來的丹麥之行,此前丹麥首相告訴他格陵蘭島是非賣品。美國總統最近表達了買下該國的意向。格陵蘭島位于加拿大北極以東,是丹麥的自治領土。盡管特朗普認為美國收購格陵蘭島是一項大型房地產交易,但丹麥首相稱這一想法荒謬可笑。1946年,美國總統哈里·杜魯門曾因其軍事戰略地位試圖買下格陵蘭島。隨著冰層融化開辟了航道,資源變得更容易獲得,特朗普對該地區重新產生了興趣。
