According to ChainCatcher, Trump posted on Truth Social Media that due to the Greenland issue, starting February 1st of this year, all goods exported to the United States from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland will be subject to a 10% tariff. By June 1st, the tariff will increase to 25%. This tariff will remain in effect until an agreement is reached on the "comprehensive purchase of Greenland."

In his post, Trump stated, "Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland have all traveled to Greenland for unknown purposes. This poses a very dangerous situation for the security, safety, and survival of our planet. These countries are playing an extremely dangerous game, and the risks they pose are intolerable and unsustainable. Therefore, in order to protect global peace and security, strong measures must be taken to bring this potentially dangerous situation to a swift and indisputable end."

In addition, the EU will convene an emergency meeting of ambassadors from member states in Brussels on the 18th to discuss the Greenland issue and US President Trump's new tariff threats.
