UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday said US President Donald Trump’s threats linked to Greenland were “completely wrong”. Starmer said the future of Greenland must be decided by its people and the Denmark government. Trump has warned of tariffs on the UK and other countries that oppose his proposal to take control of Greenland. Starmer described the issue as serious but played down the prospect of retaliation. He said a trade war would not benefit any side. Trump has argued that US control of Greenland is needed for security reasons. (PC: BBC)
