Trump says some European imports will face a 10% tariff over Greenland spat
President Donald Trump says he'll impose a 10% import tax starting in February on goods from eight European nations because of their opposition to American control of Greenland. His threat sets up a potentially dangerous test of U.S. partnerships in Europe. Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland would face the tariff. Trump says the rate would climb to 25% on June 1 if no deal was in place for “the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland” by the United States. European leaders said the tariffs “would undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral.”
