Trump vows tariffs on eight European nations over Greenland

US President Donald Trump has vowed to impose escalating tariffs on eight European countries in a bid to pressure Denmark into allowing the United States to purchase Greenland. In a Truth Social post, he announced that a 10 percent tariff on all goods from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland will begin on February 1.​ Trump said the tariffs would rise to 25 percent on June 1 and remain in place “until a deal is reached for the complete and total purchase of Greenland.” He argued that Greenland’s strategic location and natural resources are vital to US national security and suggested he would not rule out tougher measures if Europe continues to oppose American control of the territory.​ European governments and Denmark, which has sovereignty over Greenland, have rejected previous US overtures and insist […]

Germany urges citizens to leave Iran over security risks

Germany has advised its citizens to immediately leave Iran, citing possible retaliation from Tehran following Berlin’s role in activating United Nations sanctions linked to Iran’s nuclear programme. On Thursday, Germany, alongside Britain and France, initiated a 30-day process to reimpose U.N. sanctions on Iran, a move that is expected to heighten tensions in the region. The decision comes just two months after Israel and the United States carried out airstrikes against Iran. In a statement published on its official website, Germany’s Foreign Ministry warned that Iranian authorities had repeatedly threatened consequences over the sanctions push. “As Iranian government representatives have repeatedly threatened with consequences in this case, it cannot be ruled out that German interests and nationals will be affected by countermeasures in Iran,” the ministry said. The government also noted that the German Embassy in Tehran is currently operating […]
