Trump threatened Denmark with economic retaliation against Greenland
US President-elect Donald Trump has threatened Denmark with “extremely high” tariffs if it resists an attempt to seize control of the self-governing Danish territory of Greenland.
Asked on Tuesday whether he would rule out using military or economic force to seize control of the strategically important island, he replied: “No, I can’t assure you of either of those.”
“I can say this, they are necessary for economic security.
These words of Trump were spoken during the visit of his son Donald Trump Jr. to Greenland that day.
