Russia is jabbing the United States for trying to purchase Greenland, Newsweek is reporting.
"This is not our business, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said. "We are not engaged in such international shopping." His comments came in a story posted by the RBC news on Thursday.
Greenland is a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the idea of a U.S. purchase of Greenland "an absurd discussion."
President Donald Trump, saying he did not appreciate Denmark's rejection of his idea, called her remarks "nasty." He also canceled his Sept. 2-3 visit to Denmark.
