‘On hold’: EU pauses trade pact with US after Trump links new tariffs to Greenland

The EU has paused negotiations on an EU–US trade deal after President Trump imposed new tariffs on Denmark and other European countries, linking them to his push to acquire Greenland. European Parliament halted ratification of the trade deal, with leaders warning of possible retaliation if tariffs remain. The dispute threatens a major July agreement aimed at stabilizing transatlantic trade, risking billions in energy purchases and investments.
