Many in Europe see him sort of as a Trump whisperer.
There's a lot of really complicated legal questions here, and it's one that European officials, legal experts...
didn't really have to think of before this, because no one thought that an American leader would try to buy an island in the same way that countries did in the 17th, 18th, 19th centuries here.
There is a framework that the United States has proposed.
It's called COFA, or Compact Free Association.
And that's a model that the United States has used with a few small Pacific islands, including Micronesia and the Marshall Islands.
These islands are allowed to self-govern
And the US pays them under rights a lot of their governance services.
And in exchange, the US basically has free reign to be in charge of its defense and security.
But again, anything that undermines Greenland and Denmark's sovereignty over Greenland
These Danish and Greenlandic leaders say is an absolute red line.
They're not willing to cede Greenland's territory or sovereignty.
They're saying this island, our people are not for sale.
And these are just two irreconcilable differences between the American side and the European side here.
And we don't know how or if this framework that Trump proposes have really addressed that yet.
Thanks for having me.
