Trump Leaves Door Open to Climbdown over Furious US Row with Europe over Greenland
Trump hinted at dropping 10% tariffs planned for Feb 1 on Europe over Greenland amid calls for immediate talks citing national security concerns.
- Donald Trump signalled a potential retreat on tariffs in the Greenland dispute by calling for immediate negotiations and warned the US would remember if Europe refuses.
- Framing the dispute as security-driven, Donald Trump argued Greenland is part of North America and criticised Denmark as 'ungrateful', saying only America could defend the island.
- Using striking rhetoric, Donald Trump, US president, warned he might use excessive strength for Greenland but ruled out deploying soldiers and said, `Certain places in Europe are not even recognisable.`
- With tariffs slated to begin on February 1, the 10% tariff linked to Greenland creates immediate trade pressure amid uncertainty from remarks to a packed Congress Hall at Davos.
- Beyond Greenland, Donald Trump, US president, echoed past United Nations criticisms last year, highlighted cooperation with Venezuelan officials, promoted US economic growth, and faced distant protesters outside Congress Hall.
