President Donald Trump warned he may impose tariffs against countries that don’t support his plan to acquire Greenland, a territory of Denmark, he said during a roundtable discussion Friday morning at the White House.
“I may put a tariff on countries if they don’t go along with Greenland, because we need Greenland with national security, so I may do that,” Trump said without elaborating.
Trump has frequently mentioned his plans to take control of Greenland, even suggesting he could use military force to seize the country, but this marks the first time he has threatened tariffs against countries opposing his efforts.
