Greenland in focus again: Trump talks about agreement with allies

United States President Donald Trump announced a backtracking on his previous threats of tariffs on European countries over Greenland, saying a "framework for a future agreement" has been reached with NATO on Arctic security and the position of Greenland.

Trump made the announcement after his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, where he stressed the strategic importance of Greenland to US national security and NATO allies. As a result, he announced that he would withdraw from a plan to impose new tariffs on eight European countries, which were set to take effect on February 1, writes Jutarnji.hr, Reported IndeksOnline.

On the other hand, Denmark and Greenland itself have stressed that the island's sovereignty is not up for discussion, calling any idea of ​​changing its status unacceptable. Although Trump said he has no intention of using military force to take control of the territory, the details of the agreement still remain unclear and talks will continue.

This development came after Trump had previously warned that if the US did not act, Russia or China could exert influence over Greenland, calling it a key point of global security./IndeksOnline/
