Trump Advances Greenland Acquisition Push Amid NATO Talks and European Opposition

US President Donald Trump intensified his push to acquire Greenland, citing its strategic importance for national and international security during his address at the World Economic Forum in Davos. He ruled out military force but warned of economic measures, including tariffs, which he later suspended after reaching a framework agreement with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. European leaders, including France's Emmanuel Macron, strongly opposed Trump's demands, calling for unity and cautioning against destabilizing alliances. The dispute delayed a planned economic support package for postwar Ukraine and heightened tensions within NATO and transatlantic relations.
