The US President, Donald Trump, is moving fast to acquire Greenland.com.
The domain is the pride and joy of Denmark, the country that governs the gigantic icy island in the North Atlantic.
Donald Trump stated on Twitter, his official channel of intergovernmental communications:
“Very, very smart idea. The US and its close allies need this domain for fast base launch against cybercrime. The Russians are close in Europe but all Atlantic bases are belong to US. Greenland is a great ally, the .com is best strategy against Russia interference in the Atlantic and cyberspace. Expect great things on Greenland.com.”
News of the President’s intentions to acquire Greenland.com were met with scorn and disbelief by the Danish government:
“Mr. President, go away. Greenland.com is not for sale. Use your own ccTLD, dot .US.”
Registered in 1995, the domain Greenland.com forwards to VisitGreenland.com, a domain and web site 100% owned by the Government of Greenland, who is responsible for marketing the country’s adventures and opportunities for guests wishing to visit the world’s largest island.
Will Greenland eventually break down to pressure from Donald Trump and sell him Greenland.com, the world’s biggest island geodomain?
