‘We need to fight’: Trump Greenland threat brings sense of unity in Denmark
AI Summary
The EU is considering how to respond to potential US tariffs threatened by Donald Trump over the EU's opposition to his efforts to acquire Greenland. Several EU leaders have voiced opposition to Trump's pursuit of the territory, raising the possibility of retaliatory tariffs from the EU. Some within the EU believe Trump's actions have crossed a line, potentially impacting NATO and other agreements. Political groups in the European Parliament are signaling they may reject a previously reached EU-US tariff deal. An emergency meeting of the 27 EU national leaders is scheduled for Thursday in Brussels to discuss the situation, with some leaders potentially meeting with Trump in Davos beforehand.
