What are the latest developments regarding President Trump's statements on Greenland?
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst. There's a sense of relief in Europe after President Trump told the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, he won't pursue military force to take control of Greenland. Trump also says he'll no longer impose additional tariffs on eight European nations. But NPR's Eleanor Beardsley reports there are concerns that the crisis is far from over.
Danish Foreign Minister Lars Loke Rasmussen welcomed the fact that Trump now says he won't use force to capture Greenland, but warned that his expansionist ambitions remain intact. Speaking on French television, former NATO General Olivier de Bavin-Chauve remarked on Trump's disdain for Europe. He basically said, you are all ingrates, we Americans do everything, and without us, you are nothing.
Then, a few hours after his speech, Trump said he and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte have reached agreement on a framework of a future deal on Greenland. No details yet, though it does not apparently entail the U.S. owning the Arctic island. Eleanor Beardsley, NPR News, Paris.
In Texas, a jury acquitted former Robb Elementary School police officer Adrian Gonzalez of child endangerment in his response to the 2022 shooting. Spencer Cheahok with member station KEDT has more.
Former Uvalde police officer Adrian Gonzalez had been accused of 29 counts of child endangerment related to his response to the 2022 Robb Elementary School shooting. Defense attorney Nico LaHood spoke with reporters after the decision.
This is a long day coming for Adrian and his family, but we're humbled by the verdict, but we also know that there's families on the other side that are dealing with this new normal that they've had for three years and they're still in pain. And so this was a disappointment for them. So we acknowledge that.
The verdict ends the first attempt to hold a law enforcement officer criminally responsible for the delayed response to the shooting that killed 19 students and two teachers. For NPR News, I'm Spencer Chiok in Corpus Christi.
Health officials in South Carolina say the state's measles outbreak could continue for weeks or possibly months. The state's top epidemiologist, Linda Bell, says there are currently more than 530 people in quarantine and up to 33 in isolation and exposures at schools across the state. And she says they're expanding vaccine access but that some people are still reluctant to be vaccinated.
We're not necessarily actively seeing people who are pushing back. Another way to look at that is they're perhaps not accepting our guidance and accepting our recommendations.
