- US President Donald Trump says the “framework” of a future deal on Greenland has been reached, after a meeting with NATO chief Mark Rutte, at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Switzerland. He also said he will not be imposing tariffs on the US’s European allies.
- The WEF agenda has, to some extent, been overtaken by Trump’s dramatic policy moves including his recent demand that the United States take over Greenland “the easy way or the hard way”.
- WEF organisers say more than 3,000 delegates from more than 130 countries are attending this year, including 64 heads of state and government, particularly from emerging economies.
- President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday that France prefers “respect to bullies” and rejected “unacceptable” tariffs, following Trump’s threat to impose levies on countries opposing his plans to seize Greenland.
