The Republican Congressman Earl (Buddy) Carter has submitted a law on changing the name of Greenland and its acquisition. He reported this on February 12 on his own site, and the document himself was published on the US Congress website.
At the initiative of Carter, the document must grant the powers of US President Donald Trump to "negotiate with the Denmark Government for the acquisition of Greenland." He also suggested renaming the island to "Red, Blue, White, and Blueland).
"America is returning and will soon become even greater with the addition of red-white-blue.
The text of the bill states that in the case of adoption of the document, the Minister of Internal Affairs should control the introduction of a new name of the island into each federal document. You will need to update the documents no later than 180 days.
In Denmark, they responded to Carter's statements. The deputy of the European Parliament Anders Vesen noted that the bill would finally undermine relations between the two countries. He also called the actions of Trump's administration absurd and detached from reality.
"It is obvious that there is a need for more adults in the room when the US administration forms foreign policy. If these people do not see how absurd they seem, they are detached from reality," Visten said.
