10mTrump’s Greenland threat sparks anger across Europe
A former Nato secretary general has warned that Donald Trump poses a real threat to global democracy, as the US president escalates unprecedented threats against America’s allies.
Trump has renewed his push to acquire Greenland, backing his demands with tariff threats and provocative imagery, triggering anger and protests across Europe and in Greenland itself.
Never before has a Nato member used economic coercion against fellow allies in this way, a rupture now reverberating through diplomatic meetings in Davos and testing the alliance to its limits.
