Greenland's premier on Tuesday denounced President Trump after he shared an edited picture depicting a Trump Tower on the semi-autonomous Danish territory.
Kim Kielsen told The Associated Press during a meeting in Iceland featuring Nordic leaders that purchasing the territory "is not something to joke about."
Kielsen's comments came Trump shared the image on Twitter late Monday amid discussion from his administration about purchasing Greenland, stating, "I promise not do this to Greenland!"
Denmark's prime minister made similar remarks on Sunday after reports began to surface that Trump wanted his administration to look into a purchase of Greenland.

All Ill say is imagine how destabilizing it will be when climate change makes some areas with low populations very attractive to countries with lots of money and lots of weapons.
And the idiot Trump thinks its a good idea to trivialize the topic.
I fear we are heading to an era of mass migrations. We might already be on the leading edge of it.
