Macron: ‘No amount of intimidation’ will change EU nations’ course on Greenland

French president calls tariff threats ‘unacceptable’, while Sweden’s Ulf Kristersson warns EU will not be ‘blackmailed’ by US

Emmanuel Macron has hit back at Donald Trump’s latest threats to impose tariffs on any country opposing his Greenland takeover, warning that “no amount of intimidation” will persuade European nations to change their course on Greenland.

The US president on Saturday announced 10% tariffs on eight European countries from 1 February, with a further 25% tariff from 1 June.
