Chapter 1: What recent foreign policy moves has the Trump administration made regarding Greenland?
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Ryland Barton. President Trump's desire to take over Greenland is related to him not getting the Nobel Peace Prize. That's according to text messages released by Norway. Trump told the country's prime minister that he no longer feels, quote, an obligation to think purely of peace.
Trump's messages ratchets up a standoff between Washington and its closest allies over his threats to take over Greenland. as NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben explains.
On Saturday, Trump posted that he is going to impose 10% tariffs on goods from eight European countries starting February 1st, then raise that tariff to 25% in June. And Trump said he will keep those on until a deal is reached for the U.S. to acquire Greenland. Now, I've asked the White House, by the way, for any additional information. What law authorizes this? Is an executive order coming?
We haven't heard anything back yet.
