Trump to Buy Greenland. WSJ

Vox

The US President Donald J. Trump considers buying the world’s biggest island - Greenland. According to The Wall Street Journal D. Trump has already discussed the possibility with his advisors. He has even tasked the White House legal counselor to look into the legal aspects of the potential acquisition.

The Wall Street Journal reports that some of Trump’s advisors are in favor of the “economically expedient” plan, however many at the White House believe that the President’s interest for the matter will soon go away.

This won’t be the first time the US wanted to do so: after WWII President Harry Truman offered 100,000,000 dollars for Greenland, and earlier in 1867 the State Department was looking into the prospects of a potential acquisition.

To remind the Greenland is the autonomous country of Denmark.
