\n

As President Donald Trump<\/a> ramps up his effort to acquire Greenland, a surge of international journalists have rushed to the island to take the pulse of its political leaders and residents.<\/p>\n

In recent weeks, media from around the world<\/a> \u2014 including The Associated Press, Reuters, the BBC and Al Jazeera, as well as outlets from Scandinavian countries and Japan \u2014 have made their way to the semi-autonomous Danish territory, overwhelming its politicians and community leaders with interview requests.<\/p>\n

While Trump has argued that controlling the roughly 800,000-square-mile island is necessary for national security purposes, its leaders have repeatedly insisted it’s not for sale.<\/p>\n

Juno Berthelsen, a member of parliament for the Naleraq opposition party, said the media storm intensified last year when Trump first expressed interest in acquiring Greenland, adding that he has been doing multiple interviews a day for the past two weeks.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re very few people and people tend to get tired when more and more journalists ask the same questions again and again,” Berthelsen told the Associated Press.<\/p>\n

Greenland\u2019s population<\/a> is about 57,000 people, with roughly 20,000 living in Nuuk, the small capital city where the same collection of business owners are repeatedly asked to do news interviews, sometimes as many as 15 a day.<\/p>\n

Many residents interviewed by the AP said they want the world to know that Greenlanders will decide their own future and expressed confusion about why Trump wants to control the island.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s just weird how obsessed [Trump] is with Greenland,” Maya Martinsen, 21, told the AP.<\/p>\n

She said Trump is “basically lying about what he wants out of Greenland,” asserting that the president is using U.S. national security as a means to take control of “the oils and minerals that we have that are untouched.”<\/p>\n

The Americans, Martinsen continued, “only see what they can get out of Greenland and not what it actually is.”<\/p>\n

“It has beautiful nature and lovely people. It\u2019s just home to me. I think the Americans just see some kind of business trade,” she added.<\/p>\n

Americans, however, appear ambivalent about the acquisition, with 86% of voters nationwide<\/a> saying they would oppose military action to take over Greenland, according to a Quinnipiac University poll. By a 55%-37% margin, voters surveyed said they opposed any U.S. effort to try to buy Greenland.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Trump said in a social media post that “anything less” than U.S. control of Greenland is “unacceptable,” but Greenland Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said during a news conference this week that the island will not be owned or governed by the United States.<\/p>\n

Trump’s recent comments have sparked tension with Denmark and other NATO allies, and troops from several European countries<\/a>, including France, Germany, Sweden and Norway, deployed to Greenland this week for a brief two-day mission to bolster the territory\u2019s defenses.\u00a0<\/p>\n
