flag EU delays U.S. trade deal over Trump’s forceful Greenland threat.

The European Parliament is considering delaying a U.S.-EU trade agreement due to President Donald Trump’s recent threats to seize Greenland by force if Denmark refuses to sell it. The remarks have sparked concern among European leaders and Danish officials, prompting emergency talks with U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance. The proposed deal, which would eliminate most EU tariffs on U.S. goods, faces opposition over its perceived imbalance and Trump’s aggressive rhetoric, with 23 MEPs urging a pause until the U.S. stops making territorial claims. The situation has strained transatlantic relations and raised concerns about U.S. foreign policy stability, with potential repercussions for trade and Arctic security.
