A Danish politician says former U.S. President Donald Trump's renewed interest in buying Greenland is angering local leaders.
The comments follow reports that Trump discussed the idea again with advisors. Greenland is a self-governing territory of Denmark.
In response, officials from Denmark and Greenland have requested a meeting with U.S. Senator Marco Rubio. A Danish lawmaker stated the goal is to stop all discussion about acquiring the island.
The lawmaker directly said Trump's remarks are "pissing people off" in Greenland. The territory's government has repeatedly stated it is not for sale.
