STOCKHOLM: Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Saturday rejected US President Donald Trump’s threat to European nations of swingeing tariffs if they did not let him acquire Greenland. “We won’t let ourselves be intimidated,” he said in a message sent to AFP. “Only Denmark and Greenland decide questions that concern them. “I will always defend my country and our allied neighbors,” he added, stressing that this was “a European question. “Sweden is currently having intensive discussions with other EU countries, Norway and the United Kingdom to find a joint response,” he added.

Lars Lokke Rasmussen says he rejects any 'ideas' that do not respect Greenland’s right to 'self-determination'.

Mette Frederiksen says there’s a “fundamental disagreement” between Denmark and the U.S. as Trump revives talk of taking control of Greenland.

He had not previously mentioned using tariffs to try to force the issue.

President Donald Trump said Friday that he would consider adding higher tariffs to countries that oppose his plan to take over Greenland.

Trump for months has insisted that the U.S. should control Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark.

"This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

"On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown."

Donald Trump said he will impose a 10% tariff—that will rise to 25%—on European countries that don’t support his controversial plan to take over Greenland.

President said 10% tariff on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland will begin on 1 February and increase to 25% on 1 June
