"I may put a tariff on countries if they don't go along with Greenland. We need Greenland for national security. So I may do that, Trump said at the White House on Friday, without providing specific details about the potential plan. Trump's tariff statement followed foreign ministers for Greenland and Denmark, an ally of Greenland that runs some of its affairs, meeting with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio this week in Washington."
President Trump threatened to impose tariffs on countries that do not support U.S. control of Greenland, citing national security needs. He said Greenland is required for defense and argued NATO would be far more effective with Greenland in U.S. hands. Trump referenced military power built during his first term and ongoing enhancements. Greenland and Denmark foreign ministers met with U.S. officials, and Greenland's premier stated the country would remain with Denmark rather than join the United States. Trump pushed back against that stance and warned of consequences for officials who oppose U.S. efforts regarding Greenland.
