Donald Trump has announced plans to impose tariffs on eight European countries, including the United Kingdom, unless the United States is allowed to purchase Greenland. The tariffs would start at ten percent on the first of February and could rise to twenty-five percent by June if no agreement is reached. The move has drawn strong criticism from European leaders, with the French president calling the threat 'unacceptable' and the European Union convening an emergency meeting. Thousands have protested in Copenhagen and other cities, waving Danish and Greenlandic flags and declaring that Greenland is not for sale. Meanwhile, a bipartisan United States congressional delegation visited Denmark to reassure allies and urge de-escalation, emphasizing respect for Denmark and the importance of alliance solidarity.
