    From youtube.com/bbcnews

    European leaders have united in condemning President Trump’s threat of new tariffs against allies who oppose his plan to annexe Greenland. A joint statement of European leaders said: “Tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral”. The statement, signed by the leaders of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland said: “We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.” The UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer told the US president in a phone call that he was wrong to make such a threat against NATO allies.

EU can't do anything for Trump or USA, I think EU reaction will make Americans angry and united behind Trump. USA needs to have Greenland, before Russia or China gets it.
R u nuts? do u really think US alone can fight against the World when u actually depend for basic necessity items via import? how come u americans dont have enough brain to understand the global and local consequences if such threats?

You're a complete idiot, and America is the biggest thief and terrorist in the world. (All the world wars were caused by the US: Iraq, Vietnam, currently Venezuela, Ukraine, and soon Greenland.) The question is: If the US needs Greenland for security, then Russia/China...or any other country would need to possess the US for their own security. That's the thief's logic: They're imposing a tax to own Greedland without spending any money. Europe is merely a puppet of the US, not an equal ally; they should wake up. Europe should unite with other countries to resist US hegemony. The world belongs to everyone; peace and justice mean the world does not belong to the US.

Americans are no longer the good guys. They probably never were, and now it's just becoming more obvious to everyone.

Canada/China Deal, EU/Latine America deal signed (MERCOSUR), EU secured other business partners and markets. Canada prime minister in Qatar. Timing of those deal is to clean to be random. They also enable trading goods without USD like BRICS.
While the US Gov was busy bullying around and posting on social networks. they did not notice being cornered and cut from partners. Those preps were silent moves and now that it is done, US economy is about to find out i think.

Could this be because he's not up for reelection?
