"EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said Donald Trump's threats of tariffs would 'not pressure Denmark into handing over Greenland', as she addressed the European Parliament in Strasbourg on the row on Tuesday.

They only risk making both Europe and the United States poorer and undermining our shared prosperity. We have no interest in picking a fight, but we will hold our ground. Europe has a slate of tools to protect its interests," she said. The row over Greenland with Donald Trump has seen the president threaten tariffs on those countries deploying troops to the region in recent days.
