“No ⁠comment,” Trump told ⁠the network ‍in a brief telephone interview when asked if he ‌would use ‌force to seize ‌Greenland. On Wednesday, Mr Trump is due to travel to Switzerland where he will address the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos. He said that he understood why Mr Trump’s tariff threats had been “badly received across all of the UK”. He said Mr Trump’s use of tariffs as a political threat on Saturday is “totally unacceptable”. Ms McEntee reiterated that “what happens to Greenland is for the people of Greenland and for the people of Denmark”.
