10 concerns the largest island in the world, and despite its name, about 80% of it is covered with ice.

I'm Carla Zeus.

Thank you for taking 10 minutes for our show.

Less than two weeks before he was scheduled to visit the northern European nation of Denmark, U.

S.

President Donald Trump announced yesterday that he had postponed the trip.

The reason has to do with Greenland, the island we referred to a moment ago.

Despite its huge size, the C I A.

Says it's more than three times the size of Texas.

Greenland is not an independent country.

It officially became part of Denmark in 1953 though since then Greenland has been granted a lot of authority to govern itself, making its government autonomous.

Still, Denmark remains involved in Greenland security, financial policy and foreign affairs, and that's where the United States factors in.

For more than 150 years, American politicians have expressed interest in buying Greenland from Denmark.

President Trump is the latest American official to mention this, and he's brought it up several times in recent weeks.

The island is believed to be rich and resource is like gold, diamonds, uranium, oil, lead and iron.

Or but a lot of that is covered by the territories ice sheet.

It's not heavily populated.

Less than 60,000 people are estimated to live in Greenland, but many of them struggle with high unemployment, according to the British Broadcasting Corporation, and the island relies on Denmark for most of its government revenues.

On Sunday, President Trump told reporters that Greenland is hurting Denmark and confirmed that the U.

S was interested in buying the island.

But Danish Prime Minister Meta Frederickson said Greenland is not for sale and that she strongly hope the suggestions that the U.

S.

Might buy it weren't serious.

She called them an absurd discussion.

President Trump then rode that.

Based on those comments, he postponed their scheduled meeting For another time.

I looked forward to going, but I thought that the prime minister's statement that it was absurd, that was that it was an absurd idea was nasty.

I thought it was an inappropriate statement.

Well, she had to do is say no, we wouldn't be interested.

The Danish leader called the postponement regrettable in surprising, but said repeatedly that the cancellation does not change the good relations between America and Denmark.

Now we're visiting the island of Greenland itself.

How are some of the people they're reacting to?

All this news and what interests besides resource is might the U.

S.

Have in Greenland?

Folks in the very beautiful territory of Greenland don't seem that interested in President Trump's alleged idea to buy this place, the official government of the semi autonomous region said.

Quote.

Greenland is not for sale.

They did say that they were willing to conduct a cooperation between what they call equal countries now.

Local residents that we spoke to here in the small village of Cool Asuka said the Americans tried to acquire Greenland in 18 67 and in World War Two, and they failed, and one resident said, it will not happen.

There are some reasons why America might wanna have Greenland.

It certainly does seem to have a lot of natural resource is and the Chinese have been trying to get in on that business.

That's not really something that the U.

S really likes seeing with China trying to get a lot of that business here.

Also, the U.

S.

Of course, has a big military base here in Greenland as well the hula military base.

So there are some good reasons why the U.

S.

Might want Greenland.

However, if these natural resource has really become exploitable here in Greenland, certainly the folks here would probably want autonomy, full autonomy and independence rather than becoming part of the United States.
