Greenland Protests and European Condemnation Follow Trump's Tariff Threats Over Arctic Territory

Thousands of Greenlanders, including Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen, protested against US President Donald Trump's renewed push to acquire Greenland, chanting "Greenland is not for sale" and affirming their desire for self-governance. Trump announced 10% tariffs on goods from eight European countries opposing his plan, escalating tensions within NATO and prompting strong condemnation from European leaders. Critics warn that any US attempt to take Greenland by force could damage NATO and benefit rivals like Russia and China. The dispute highlights Greenland's strategic importance amid Arctic geopolitical competition.
