Europe readying tariffs worth billions in retaliation for Trump’s Greenland threat?
A day after US President Donald Trump unveiled a sharp tariff threat linked to Greenland, eight European countries issued a joint statement on Sunday declaring full solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark and the people of Greenland.
The statement, reported by Reuters, came amid growing unease in Europe over Arctic security and the risk of a widening transatlantic trade dispute.
The joint declaration was signed by Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Britain, following Trump’s remarks that he could impose sweeping tariffs if no agreement was reached over Greenland.
