Plus, Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook seems likely to keep her job after a hearing at the Supreme Court.
It's Wednesday, January 21st.
I'm Alex Osola for The Wall Street Journal.
This is the p.m.
edition of What's News?
The top headlines and business stories that move the world today.
A day that started with high tensions between the U.S.
and Europe has taken on a more conciliatory tone.
President Trump said this afternoon that he wouldn't impose tariffs on several European countries after he reached the, quote, framework of a future deal on Greenland and the Arctic region with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
Trump's de-escalating had started earlier today in a speech at Davos when he ruled out the use of force in his pursuit of Greenland.
For more, I'm joined now by WSJ national security reporter Robbie Grammer.
Well, Robbie, we spoke earlier this afternoon about how Europeans were reacting to Trump's speech at Davos.
Now we're talking again because he's canceled the tariff threat.
How is this going over in Europe?
Do we know any details about this framework of a future deal, as he says?
That was WSJ national security reporter Robbie Grammer.
Thanks, Robbie.
Supreme Court today heard oral arguments in the case of Lisa Cook, the member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors who President Trump tried to fire last year.
And the session was rough going for the Trump administration.
