Members of the European Union are discussing options for how to respond to President Trump's use of tariffs as punishment for EU support of Greenland.
EU leaders are set to hold an emergency meeting in the coming days.
Now, Greenland is a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark itself, a founding member of NATO.
And Trump is threatening to seize control of the territory, potentially with military force.
Over the weekend, the president slapped a 10 percent tariff on goods from the eight European countries supporting Denmark.
And now we are told the EU is considering the use of retaliatory tariffs on $108 billion worth of U.S.
goods.
Now, despite the threats from President Trump, the foreign minister of Denmark, Lars Rasmussen, said the door remains open to talks with the U.S.
over Greenland.
That is Danish Foreign Minister Lars Rasmussen.
Meantime, U.S.
Treasury Secretary Scott Besant dismissed threats from the European Union to halt a tariff deal reached last year with the U.S.
Here is Besant speaking to NBC's Meet the Press.
