Trump's threatened tariffs over Greenland 'risk dangerous downward spiral', Nato countries say

The eight countries threatened with tariffs by the US President said they “stand in full solidarity” with the people of Greenland and Denmark.

French President Emmanuel Macron has called on the EU to deploy its "anti-coercion instrument" if the US imposes the tariffs.

British PM Keir Starmer told Trump that “applying tariffs on allies for pursuing the collective security of Nato allies is wrong” in a phone call.
