Trump Greenland Tariff Threats 2026: 25% Levy Vowed Against 8 NATO Allies
Trump vows to proceed 100% with Greenland tariff threats against 8 NATO allies by February 2026. EU leaders set an emergency summit as tensions escalate.
Donald Trump isn't backing down. The US President has vowed to 100% follow through on a massive tariff campaign against European allies who refuse to facilitate the American purchase of Greenland. It's a high-stakes geopolitical gamble that pits trade dominance against national sovereignty.
The 2026 Trump Greenland Tariff Roadmap
Starting February 1, 2026, the US plans to impose a 10% tariff on all goods from the UK. If a deal for Greenland isn't reached, that rate will soar to 25% by June 1. According to NBC News, the same aggressive schedule applies to Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Finland—all key members of the NATO alliance.
European Union and NATO Response
The European Union isn't taking the threat lightly. Foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas stated that the bloc has "no interest to pick a fight, but we will hold our ground." An emergency summit in Brussels is scheduled for this Thursday to coordinate a unified response. Denmark's foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, warned that you "can't threaten your way to ownership."
The tension has even spilled over into personal grievances. Leaked text exchanges show Trump blaming the Norway government for his lack of a Nobel Peace Prize. Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre clarified that the prize committee is independent, while firmly backing Denmark's sovereignty over Greenland.
