and we help denmark and we protect denmark and we will. >> you know, the way he's talking about all of this, do you find it at all strange there are 50,000 people who live in greenland. >> i think it's characteristic of the way president trump does diplomacy. if he's really serious about this, he'd let the professional diplomats work it out. maybe it's true that denmark would be willing to rent more space rent more space up there. i don't see them selling it because it would be such an insult to danish sense of sovereignty and pride, but they can certainly expand our air base at tuly, can give us more ports and so forth. we might have to pay something for it. we could help denmark out in that respect. but that's professional diplomats talk, just like in korea, we could have had the professional diplomats work out what it means to be -- to show a progress toward nuclear disarmament on the peninsula. but when you elevate everything to heads of state level, it may be good politics for the president of the united states, but it's not good diplomacy. it's not likely to get the kind of re

why then was he going to denmark in the first place? >> reporter: he actually had an invitation from the queen of denmark. obviously denmark is a very important ally to the united states. having covered european politics for a very long time, i can tell you denmark stood by the u.s. and sent troops to afghanistan, also to iraq, as well, even though that was controversial among other european allies. and the president himself said that this was not a front burner issue for him. and when asked whether it was one of the reasons why he was going to denmark, he said, no, it's absolutely not the reason. and just yesterday we had on our show him allegedly seemingly having fun with all this tweeting. a picture of a trump tour in greenlands -- trourd ump tower greenland and saying this is not what he wants to do. president trump being staunch on u.s. allies, however not so staunch on u.s. adversaries. one of the things president trump said is he believes that russia should make a return to the g7 which, of course, was the g8 before russia got ki

and even then denmark said, no, we're not going to sell greenland.ce then obviously there's a new world order and a lot of the european countries that have been reacting said that is not how things work, but president trump obviously doubling down today and saying he's very serious about it, and so serious he's not going to denmark if they're not willing to discuss. >> here's what the danish prime minister said yesterday. so the prime minister standing up for denmark saying it's not for sale, there's no for sale sign-on greenland. is this why he's canceling his trip the is this his whole reason for going there? >> certainly his tweets suggest if she isn't wailing to talk about this thing, he's not going to go. we have a headline on "the washington post" right now that says trump cancels his trip because denmark won't sell him greenland. is this the onion? it's astonishing. >> can you believe we're actually discussing this? >> this is guy who spent 30 years trying to buy real estate. he gets into the white house, he wants to do something splashy becau

president trump is not very well-liked in denmark.efore this hold gree greenland debacle unfolded, 7% of them said he should stay away. i can only imagine what the number must be like today. sumi: how did it even come to this? how to donald trump come to this idea of buying greenland in the first place? peter: it is not clear why donald trump set his sights on greenland now. only trump knows. it is not a completely novel idea and not as stupid as it may sound. the u.s. discover the benefit of greenland -- i will go back in history a little bit -- during world war ii, denmark invited the u.s. to send militant -- set up military bases to scare financial enemies. geographically -- scare potential enemies. geographically, greenland is located near russia. president truman was quick to see the benefits of that. we offered them $100 million, about $1.2 billion in today's money, to buy greenland. denmark rejected the offer, but allowed the bases to stay. there was a long history there. while the cold war may be over, geopolitical tensions ar

denmark is a key u.s. alley and provided intelligence and sent troops to the fights in iraq and afghanistan. does his canceling this trip where they would have discussed security issues hurt u.s. national security? >> i think it hurts our security. i think it hurts our standing in the world as a whole. i just don't know what the president is thinking. if this isn't a land deal in manhattan where they are trying to build a high-rise and you could pressure somebody for the purchase. this is a self governing people of greenland under the larger government of denmark. so it makes no sense. what is next? next week we talk about purchasing the falklands and if that doesn't work we get angry with their government. it's bizarre. i don't know how else to explain did. and for the prime minister -- the danish prime minister to call it absurd is absolutely correct. but i guess no one told the danish prime minister that our president thinks he's a deity and could make no such mistakes. >> canceling on a ally, someone w

trump's interest in buying greenland, which denmark controls. the prime minister called the prospect absurd, which sparked an angry rction from the american president.t that is je of the issues coming from the white house today. nick bryant starts our coverage. nick: its resources rich and strategically well-placed, and america's property tycoon president has long seen greenlande as a prime pi geopolitical real estate. but even though he jokingly tweeted that he promised not to build trump tower on this landscape, the danish prime minister said his interest in buying the territory was absurd. no longer did the presidency the funny side, an announced via twitter that he was canceling a next mgeth's visit to copen . pres. trump: i thought it was not a nice statement the way she blew me off. she should not to the united at that way -- she said absurd. that is not the right word to use, absurd. nick: the invitation to visit denmark had come from the well -- royal household, which said it had been completely blindsided by the president's late-night a

i love denmark i've been to denmark and frankly we'll do it another time bring. back has to be shown to the united states but. it was danish prime minister mehta frederickson who had label transfer poses to put greenland. frederickson try to limit the fallout after the us president probably concert a planned visit to denmark it is with the requests and surprise that i received the news that the president trump has canceled his visit to denmark on the 2nd and 3rd as i have been looking forward to this it. does not change the capture of our good relations and we will of course from denmark continue going dialogue with the u.s. on how we can develop corporation and deal with the many common challenges we face in. the world's biggest island limits and how to buy less than $60000.00 people it has a vast oil gas and mineral reserves and it strategically located the u.s.'s maintain a base that since 1950 s. . but it's been an autonomous danish territory for more than 200 years and its premier says there's little interest in changing nationalities. which is like the amer

look, denmark is not a big fan of donald trump and his politics.n of the united states of america. and to cancel the trip in this way is just a shame. it's absolutely a shame. and i think it's a -- you know, it just speaks to again the way i think this president, that donald trump, the way he moves these traditional alliances and not just denmark. it's nato more broadly. these alliances that keep the west peaceful and prosperous for so many decades. >> there's a lot of speculation back here that this is just the art of distraction. that this whole denmark, that the desire to buy greenland, that now the cancellation, that it's all just a big distraction. but do you believe that? and if so, what's it distracting from? >> that i don't know. i don't know if it's a distraction or not if it is, i don't think it reflects well on the united states nor the administration. foreign policy, diplomacy amongst friends is about sitting across the table and maybe disagreeing on some things and hammering out those disagreements. and it is not -- it is a foreign pol

well i think in the sense that in denmark at least to start it a debate about the denmark's relationship to greenland it has been a kind of trouble relationship colonialism. greenland is feeling like they haven't really been taken seriously and i think i've heard some members of greenland as members of the danish parliament today say well maybe we need to you know use this to put more pressure on denmark and try to get them to treat us also with a bit more spectacle and you know where we're part of martin and let's talk about process with the danish told by. oh that's easy. to go. this is day w still to come take a close look at this it's a remind you of anything but explain why this right is a job interviews with prakash feeing around. the head about germany's powerful but scandal ridden football association looks like it's getting a new president officials today gave their backing to fritz katter the head of freiburg bundesliga club to lead an association with 7000000 members the largest of its kind in the well kelly was the only candidate proposed by exploratory commission to replace.

over denmark's refusal. i'm curious how officials are responding there. is it surprise, is it anger? >> i mean, it's been quite a turn around as you say. and this tweet came out overnight. and i think the general feeling is incredulity, shock surprise and lots of people we're speaking to, to the local press say people feel they've been offended, that the government has been offended, that the queen has been offended because this visit from the u.s. president was invited by her majesty the queen the second of denmark. this is an official state visit. looking at the reaction today you can see why the u.s. ambassador to denmark has tweeted just in the last few hours at potus values and respects denmark and looks forward to a visit in the future to discuss the many important issues on our strong bilateral relationship. great allies like america and denmark should be able to discuss all issues poepenopenly candidately, she's trying there of course to soften the blow but it is a big one. and local journalists i sp

all right that was the reaction from denmark let's get the view from the u.s. to publish fully aliya joins us from washington hi pablo what has the reaction been there in the states. well there has been a certain level of incredulity. you can imagine but also there has been a lot of criticism geared towards president donald trump in fact the former u.s. ambassador to denmark rufus gifford under the obama administration said that he thinks it was sad because it's just not the way you treat an ally he went on to say . he had the great responsibility of going to the danish government i'm requesting troops to go to iraq to syria and they went and they fought alongside our troops they died alongside our troops and he was referring of course to denmark joining the anti isis coalition back on the obama administration so many here have said that it was a grave it was an error on president trump to say what he said and to cancel the trip to denmark considering that denmark is a close ally of the united states now it was quite interesting to see actually what the current
