'World Peace Is At Stake': Trump Throws Down Gauntlet With Sweeping Pressure Tactic To Acquire Greenland
President Donald Trump slapped tariffs on eight European allies Saturday in a push to force the sale of Greenland to the United States. Trump announced in a Truth Social post that Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland will face a 10% tariff on all goods starting Feb. 1. The rate will jump to 25% on June 1 and remain in place until a deal is reached for what he called the 'Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.' 'Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back -- World Peace is at stake!' Trump wrote.
