  Donald Trump on Wednesday accused Danish Prime Minister Mette
  Frederiksen of being 'nasty' when she said his plan to buy Greenland was 'absurd.'
  
  The president told reporters on the South lawn her statement on the matter 'was nasty' during a 35-minute, free wheeling exchange that included his thoughts on gun background checks,
  Israel, the New York Times, China and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
  
  His remarks came after Frederiksen said earlier Wednesday she was 'surprised'
  at Trump's decision to cancel his two-day visit.
  But her initial reaction on Monday - after the president publicly confirmed his interest in buying Greenland - was to call it 'absurd.'
  
  Frederiksen was in Greenland on Monday to visit her counter
  part there when she said any talk of a sale was 'an absurd discussion.' 
  
  Trump showed his anger at her use of the word.  
  
  'I thought that the prime minister's statement that it was absurd - that it was an absurd idea - was nasty.
  I thought it was an inappropriate statement. All she
  had to do is say no, we wouldn't be interested,' he said.
  
  
  He repeatedly went back to her word 'absurd' when asked
  about American-Danish relations after officials refused to consider his
  offer to buy the world's largest island - and
  complained Frederiksen could not treat the U.S. that way.  
  
  'She shouldn't treat the United States that way. She said absurd.
  That's not the right word to use. Absurd,' he said of
  Frederiksen's reaction to but Greenland, which is an autonomous Danish
  territory. 
  
  'I thought it was an inappropriate statement. All she had to
  do is say no, we wouldn't be interested,' he added.
  
  'I thought it was a very not nice way of saying something.
  They could have told me no,' he said. 'All they had to do is say, no, we would rather not do that or we would rather not talk about it.
  Don't say what an absurd idea that is.' 
  
  He accused her of insulting the United States with her response. 
  
  'She's not talking to me,' he said of Frederiksen. 'She's
  talking to the United States of America. You don't talk to the United States that
  way. At least under me.' 
  
  'I thought it was not a nice statement - the way she blew me off,' he added later.
  'We've done a lot for Denmark.'
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Donald Trump accused the Danish prime minister of being 'nasty' when she
  said his plan to buy Greenland was 'absurd'
  
  
  
  
  
  Trump originally said Greenland was not the reason for his
  trip to Denmark
  
  Trump also said he was not looking at purchasing land from other countries.
  
  
  'No,' he said in response to a question from Dailymail.com.
  'Greenland was just an idea. Just a thought. But I think when they say it was
  absurd and it was said in a very nasty, very sarcastic way, I
  said we'll make it some other time.'
  
  'I love Denmark. I've been to Denmark and, frankly, we'll do it another
  time,' he added. 'Respect has to be shown to the United States.' 
  
  He also noted he was not the first president to bring up the idea of buying Greenland.
  
  
  'The prime minister used a terrible word when talking about something we've been talking about for years,' he
  said. 
  
  'This is something that has been discussed for many years.
  Harry Truman had the idea of Greenland. I had the idea.
  Other people have had the idea. It goes back into
  the early 1900s. But Harry Truman very strongly thought it was a good idea.
  I think it is a good idea because Denmark is losing $700 million a year with it.
  It doesn't do them any good,' he noted. 
  
  Additionally, Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas, a close Trump ally on Capitol Hill, also is interested in purchasing Greenland.
  
  
  Cotton raised the idea in August 2018 when Danish
  Ambassador Lone Dencker Wisborg dropped by his Senate
  office, The Atlantic reported. Cotton also discussed the idea with Trump - although no
  time frame was given for when that conversation took place. 
  
  After his angry rant at Frederiksen, Trump then took to Twitter to complain Denmark is not paying enough in its NATO fees.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Trump complained of the Danish prime minister's calling his idea
  'absurd' and said Frederiksen could not treat the U.S.
  that way
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  'For the record, Denmark is only at 1.35% of GDP for
  NATO spending. They are a wealthy country and should be at 2%.
  We protect Europe and yet, only 8 of the 28 NATO countries are at the
  2% mark. The United States is at a much, much
  higher level than that,' he wrote.
  
  'Because of me, these countries have agreed to pay ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS more - but still way
  short of what they should pay for the incredible military
  protection provided. Sorry!,' he added.
  
  Denmark agreed to raise its NATO contribution to 1.5
  percent of its gross domestic product in 2023, up from 1.35 percent it
  will pay this year, Danish officials said in January. 
  
  Trump's cancelation comes as Barack Obama has made his own plans
  to visit Denmark.
  
  The former president will be at the Musikkens Hus (Music House) in the
  northern city Aalborg on September 28 for 'A Conversation with
  President Barack Obama.' The invitation-only event will be for business leaders but will
  also include around two hundred students from Aalborg University, Ritzau,
  a Danish news site. 
  
  The president has been vocal about his interest in obtaining Greenland but Frederiksen slammed his scouting efforts
  as 'absurd', saying the semi-autonomous island is not for sale. 
  
  The Danish prime minister also said she was 'disappointed and surprised' by
  Trump's decision to cancel his upcoming state visit.
  
  
  Snubbed in his purchase offer, Trump, a former real
  estate tycoon, decided to postpone his meeting with Frederiksen, which was scheduled to take place in two weeks, in a dramatic last-minute decision announced on Twitter Tuesday night. 
  
  Queen Margrethe II and the royal household on Wednesday expressed surprise at the sudden cancellation, while other prominent Danish politicians described it as 'deeply insulting'. 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Donald Trump has cancelled his upcoming meeting with Denmark's
  Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen because she refuses to talk about
  potentially selling Greenland

  Helle Thorning-Schmidt, a former Danish Prime Minister, wrote
  on Twitter that Trump's cancellation was 'deeply insulting'
  
  
  
  
  
  President Barack Obama, seen in Germany in April, will be
  in Denmark on September 28 to speak to business leaders and students
  
  Trump's visit was originally seen as a thank you to the
  small northern European nation, which is a member of NATO and has supported the U.S.
  military missions in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.
  
  The country has seen 43 Danish troops members killed in those U.S.-led missions, which is a large number for a country of 5.5 million not used to participating in battle.
  
  
  His cancellation has now sparked worries of a diplomatic row but Frederiksen argued it would not harm relations between Copenhagen and Washington. 
  
  Frederiksen, who took office two months ago as Denmark's second female head of government
  and the leader of the left-leaning Social Democratic Party,
  said relations between Copenhagen and Washington 'are not in any crisis in my opinion' after Trump canceled his plans to visit Denmark following her rejection of the sale.
  
  
  'I don't believe that the cancellation should have any influence on other matters,' she said. 
  
  She also confirmed Wednesday that 'a discussion about a potential sale of Greenland has been put forward.'
  
  But she noted: 'It has been rejected by Greenland Premier Kim Kielsen,
  and I fully stand behind that rejection'. 
  
  The prime minister said she was 'disappointed and surprised' by Trump's
  decision to cancel his two-day stop in her country. 
  
  But she told reporters that 'the invitation for a stronger strategic cooperation with the Americans in the
  Arctic is still open'.
  
  Former Danish government ministers were quick to speak out, with ex-foreign minister and head
  of the foreign affairs committee in parliament, Martin Lidegaard, telling Trump to 'please stop'.
  
  
  
  He added to Danish broadcaster TV2 that it was 'a diplomatic farce' and added that Trump's behavior was 'grotesque' and he was 'throwing
  a hissy fit'.
  
  Helle Thorning-Schmidt, a former Danish Prime Minister, wrote
  on Twitter that Trump's cancellation was 'deeply insulting to the people of
  Greenland and Denmark'.
  
  
  
  
  The 811,000-square-mile island of icy terrain in the Atlantic inhabits about 56,
  000 people, and though it is technically in North American waters, the self-governing land is culturally European

  buy the island. Pictured is the town of Kulusuk in Greenland
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Trump tweeted Tuesday evening that he would postpone the meeting, originally
  scheduled during his September 2 and 3 state visit,
  'for another time' because Frederiksen said Greenland was not for sale
  
  While another ex-finance minister, Kristian Jensen, went further describing it as 'total chaos' and adding:
  'This has gone from a great opportunity for a strengthened dialogue between allies to
  a diplomatic crisis.'
  
  Lene Balleby, head of communications for the Danish royal family,
  said: 'It [the cancellation] was a surprise - we have nothing more
  to say about this case.'
  
  Frederiksen noted that preparations for the
  September 2 and 3 visit were 'well underway'. 
  
  'It is with regret and surprise that I received the
  news that President Trump has cancelled his state visit to Denmark on the second and third of
  September,' she said. 
  
  'I had been looking forward to the visit, our preparations were well underway.
  It was an opportunity, I think, to celebrate Denmark's close relationship to the US - who remains one of Denmark's
  closest allies. 
  
  'I was looking forward to having a dialogue on the many shared interests we have with the US. 
  
  'Furthermore the development in the Arctic region called for further co-operation between the US, Greenland, the Faroe Islands and Denmark.
  
  And therefore I would like to underline our invitation for a stronger co-operation on Arctic
  affairs still stands. 
  
  Trump was prepared to take over Denmark's annual $600
  million subsidy to Greenland in perpetuity before
  he canceled his visit. 
  
  The president also had discussed giving Denmark a large one-time payment as well to help move
  the transaction along, senior administration officials told The Washington Post.  
  
  Greenland handles its own domestic affairs but Denmark covers its
  national security and foreign relations. The Danes also pay for 50 percent of the island's budget
  in direct subsidies with additional spending
  on defense. 
  
  In total, Denmark spends about $740 million annually
  on Greenland.

  Frederiksen pointed out Greenland officials rejected the idea - a move she supported.
  
  
  'A discussion however has been raised about a potential sale of Greenland.
  This has clearly been rejected by Kim Kielsen, a position that I share of course,' she
  said.
  
  'This does not change the character of our
  good relations and we will, of course, from Denmark continue an ongoing dialogue with the US on how we can develop our
  co-operation and deal with the many common challenges we are
  facing.'  
  
  Trump was invited by Denmark's Queen Margrethe II for a state visit in Copenhagen in early September, which would have followed a stop in Warsaw, Poland, where the president will take part in a series of ceremonies in honor of the 80th anniversary of the start of World War II.
  
  
  First lady Melania Trump was to have accompanied
  him and dinner with the Queen was on the agenda.  
  
  The president initially claimed the visit wouldn't be about a Greenland purchase, his sudden cancellation has
  cast doubts on the intentions of his trip.  
  
  A senior official told DailyMail.com last week that Trump was
  visiting Denmark because he was invited and not to purchase
  Greenland. 
  
  The senior official said that reports on Trump's interest in buying the
  property were being 'overblown,' and the president was not entirely serious pursuing the
  sale. 
  
  However, Trump's tweets challenged that.  
  
  'Denmark is a very special country with incredible people, but based on Prime Minister
  Mette Frederiksen's comments, that she would have no interest in discussing the purchase of
  Greenland, I will be postponing our meeting scheduled in two weeks for another time....' the president wrote on Twitter
  Tuesday night.
  
  'The Prime Minister was able to save a great deal of expense and effort for both
  the United States and Denmark by being so direct. I thank her
  for that and look forward to rescheduling sometime in the future!' he added,
  digging at Frederiksen for spurning his interest in buying the island.  
  
  
  
  
  President Donald Trump has likened buying Greenland to 'a large real estate deal' after confirming interest in purchasing the
  world's largest island from Denmark. It comes after
  Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Greenland was
  not for sale and the idea of selling it to the U.S. was absurd on Sunday
  
  
  
  
  
  His cancellation came just three hours after the US ambassador to Denmark tweeted:
  'Denmark is ready for the POTUS @realDonaldTrump visit!
  
  Partner, ally, friend' sharing a picture of a billboard emblazoned with Trump's name

  An email address that translated as 'We have come to slaughter'
  was used to buy chemicals for the Manchester Arena
  bomb on Amazon, a court heard today.
  
  Hashem Abedi, the brother of the bomber whose explosives were detonated in a deadly blast in May
  2017, was linked to the address, the Old Bailey was told.
  
  
  Abedi allegedly helped build the bomb which killed his older brother, Salman,
  and 22 others in the foyer outside the arena after a concert by pop star Ariana Grande.
  
  
  The Old Bailey was told that a Gmail address
  bedab7jeana@gmail.com was set up to buy hydrogen peroxide,
  a vital ingredient for the TATP explosives, on March 20,
  2017.
  
  The email, translated from the Arabic, read: 'To slaughter we have come' or 'We have come to slaughter',
  Duncan Penny QC, prosecuting, told the court. 
  
  
  
  
  Hashem Abedi, 22, is on trial accused of
  helping his brother to assemble chemicals and materials to build TATP explosives
  which were detonated in Manchester on May 22, 2017
  
  Hashem Abedi's temporary phone was in the same area, 20 minutes before the publicly available Wifi was used at Hulme Market in Manchester to
  create the email address.
