UK PM Starmer says trade war in no one’s interest after Trump's tariff threats
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Monday that US President Donald Trump’s threat of tariffs against allies over Greenland is “completely wrong” and a trade war is in no one’s interest. Trump said Saturday that he would charge a 10% import tax starting in February on goods from eight European nations, including the UK, because of their opposition to American control of Greenland, setting up a potentially dangerous test of US partnerships in Europe. Greenland is a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark.
