What Danish Lawmaker stated
“Dear President Trump, listen very carefully. Greenland has been part of the Danish kingdom for 800 years. It is an integrated country. It is not for sale,” he stated. Vistisen added, “Let me put this in words you might understand: Mr President, f*** off.” However, Parliament Vice President Nicolae Stefanuta chastised him for his language, warned of penalties.
“I am sorry, colleague, this is against our rules,” Stefanuta instructed him. “We have clear rules about curse words and language that is inappropriate in this room. I am sorry to interrupt you. It is unacceptable, even if you might have strong political feelings about this,” he added.
