BreakingNews·190821 - 唐纳德·特朗普有意收购格陵兰岛

U.S. President Donald Trump has said he is interested in buying the territory of Greenland. President Trump said any purchase of the world's second largest island would be like buying property. He said it was, "essentially a large real estate deal... They've got a lot of valuable minerals". He added: "Denmark owns it. We're very good allies with Denmark. We protect Denmark like we protect large portions of the world. So the concept came up and I said, 'Certainly I'd be [interested].' Strategically, it's interesting and we'd be interested but we'll talk to them a little bit." Mr Trump said buying Greenland was not his top priority at the moment. He said: "It's not number one on the burner, I can tell you that."

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，他有兴趣购买格陵兰岛。特朗普总统表示，购买世界第二大岛屿就像购买房产一样。他说，这“本质上是一笔大型房地产交易……他们有很多有价值的矿产。”他补充道:“丹麦拥有它。我们和丹麦是很好的盟友。我们像保护世界大部分地区一样保护丹麦。于是我就有了这个想法，我说:‘我当然会感兴趣。从战略上讲，这很有趣，我们也会感兴趣，但我们会和他们聊一聊。”特朗普表示，购买格陵兰岛目前不是他的首要任务。他说:“我可以告诉你，这不是当务之急。”

Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark. The Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, told reporters that Greenland would not be sold. She said: "Greenland is not for sale. Greenland is not Danish. Greenland belongs to Greenland. I strongly hope that this is not meant seriously." She added: "It's an absurd discussion, and Greenland's Prime Minister Kim Kielsen has of course made it clear that Greenland is not for sale. That's where the conversation ends." The USA has a history of being interested in Greenland. In 1946, President Harry Truman offered Denmark $100 million for the island but Denmark said no. In 1867, President Andrew Johnson paid Russia $7.2 million for Alaska.

格陵兰是丹麦的自治领土。丹麦首相梅特·弗雷德里克森(Mette Frederiksen)告诉记者，格陵兰岛不会出售。她说:“格陵兰岛是非卖品。格陵兰不是丹麦。格陵兰岛属于格陵兰岛。我强烈希望这不是认真的。”她补充说:“这是一个荒谬的讨论，格陵兰总理基姆·基尔森(Kim Kielsen)当然已经明确表示，格陵兰是非卖品。这就是谈话的结束。”美国对格陵兰岛的兴趣由来已久。1946年，杜鲁门总统向丹麦提供1亿美元，但丹麦拒绝了。1867年，安德鲁·约翰逊总统向俄罗斯支付720万美元购买阿拉斯加。
