President Donald Trump has escalated tensions with Europe by vowing sweeping tariffs on eight allied nations backing Denmark in the dispute over Greenland. The proposed measures include an immediate 10% tariff on goods, with a warning that penalties could rise to 25% by June unless a deal is reached. The move targets key NATO allies and risks triggering a broader trade war, raising questions about alliance unity, legal authority, and the global economic fallout of the growing Greenland standoff.

US trump pentagon EXTORTION to EU by tariff? To make US rich.
kneeling to trump? Noo way
All I hear is diarrhea of the mouth
It’s already a shameful country
Trump,
If U capture Peaceful Greenland, the consequences will be high enough that the US cannot afford it.
So better is to Leave capturing Greenland.
Foolish Trump will not hear my good words. Face the bad consequences in US.
Let us see the consequences.
Hai Trump. 😂😂😂
Bye.
…… Trump know that eu /NATO need USA to keep Russia in check . NATO should be punished, and Trump is doing a good Job
This idiot is all about himself! He must have been a TRUMP-ETER in his previous birth! God sent him back to earth, to make the world a better place with his comical self praise!😅😅😂
Good, because the United States is sick of Europe's BULLSHIT. They owe us a lot of fucken money.
Trump isolating he's allies is a blackmail game
From western world, I find only American leaders are good and also white Americans are good.
Why is he dropping the prescription prices… we all have insurance with private or medicaid. Who is benefitting? My prescriptions are the same.
Should we maybe sell all the american debt we own in Europe?
Seems like a good Sunday to chrash their economy!
Sad times indeed. But if Mr Orange wants to play ball…seems like a message he would understand!
Scotland will put tariffs on his golf courses here.
Hit his business hard.
In worst case senario, a lot of countrys are gunna cut trade ties with the Us, there is already talks about this. Trump is spewing so much bs.
AI voice?
Two common threads to note with leaders who want to save Greenland, save Ukraine, save Palestinians:
1 They all have ruined and have no interest in saving their own country. They’ve all allowed their own land to be invaded;
2 None have any interest in saving people in Iran.
Could it be they are all reading from the same script?
Without Europe, Trump's America Does NOT HAVE MANY FRIENDS LEFT IN THE WORLD!!! Why do Americans accept this ??????
Eu countries Start drama and betrayed each other
Who pays Tarrif? the importer, being USA! xD
False and misleading Trump again.
How can anyone believe this 😂
trump are so problematic
evil empire = usa
Absolutely correct statement
World just – minus us from business
Mr. Pervesident moves from one threat to another in a couple days. The invasion threat didn't pay off, now the tariffs, tomorrow begging and crying perhaps.
It's time to abandon the United States umbrella and leave them alone. And do business with China like Canada did, the complete opposite of what Trump wanted.
Beginning of WWIII because of this joker
dont trade with USA ..
babbling buffoon comes to mind.
Unfortunately in trumps tiny mind, he believes AMERICA rules the world. The world will take there business elsewhere, as they are doing, and leave AMERICA broke and lonely. Countries love stability. With trump there is none of that.
The rest of the world must unite and retaliate America with 500% tariff on everything.. The world must isolate that insane criminal!! 😮
Trump is actually a moron. Had this not been the case, he would have known that tariffs would not force Europe to surrender Greenland.
Europe will retaliate—and coordinate.
The U.S. economy would be hit harder than Europe’s. He has so quickly forgotten the consequences of his silly tariffs recently.
America’s alliances, credibility, and global leverage would suffer lasting damage and seal the doom of his party in November, as it did in the recent elections.
What Trump is attempting is not hard-nosed realism.
It is economic bullying applied to the wrong targets, producing the wrong incentives, at the wrong time.
Great powers do not strengthen themselves by coercing allies.
They weaken themselves—and advertise it to rivals. The best bet for Republicans is to join Democrats and impeach the dangerous incompetent Donald John Trump.
Trump is an idiot not to know that he will never be given Greenland. Trump is a liar, and he is too incompetent.
get Greenland,we back you to the hills 🔴⚪🔵
thats your lovelly friend usa hahahhaha. spit on eu face
I used to support trump. However he has gone full 100% batshit crazy and needs removed asap. C'mon America you cant think this is acceptable. Hes just gone nuts.
Who pays the tariff's? The Orange Man can say whatever he wants but "The Economic Times" should know that the additional "tariff" tax will end up being paid by Americans.
None of these countries protesting our takeover of Greenland are even allies much more, closest allies. They are all loser countries run by authortarian losers that have bankrupted their countries and tried to bankrupt ours. We're taking Greenland. We're dissolving 5 eyes and NATO.
The Incredible Army of Brancaleone to the rescue of Greenland, the show must go on.
TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
So what? He threatens tariffs all the time, even if he wouldn't want them over this, he would still try to impose them over something else…tariffs aren't news anymore nor reliable
Trump has a great sense of humour. Best president ever! 🎉👍🏻🇺🇲
Perhaps Trump Thinks: After all, I am the President of America! I Own The Whole World.
Sanctions on America is the only option. EU must come together to Impose a strong Sanctions on US
