President Donald Trump reportedly invited a German delegation to take various items from a room in the White House, saying they could be sold for thousands of dollars.
In a piece published by The Wall Street Journal on Sunday, the paper described a previously unreported meeting of European heads of government back in January, after Trump reiterated his desire to acquire Greenland, the autonomous North Atlantic and Arctic Circle territory from Denmark.

However, Trump has indicated he wants Greenland to become a U.S. territory. European leaders were so concerned about the presidents designs on Greenland that they convened a meeting in January, where French President Emmanuel Macron declared, We are drawing a line here.
