Trump has said he will not be imposing tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on 1 February.

In a post on Truth Social he said, based upon a “very productive meeting” with the Secretary General of Nato Mark Rutte they “have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland”.

He said: "This solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United States of America, and all Nato Nations.

"Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st. Additional discussions are being held concerning The Golden Dome as it pertains to Greenland.

“Further information will be made available as discussions progress. Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and various others, as needed, will be responsible for the negotiations — They will report directly to me. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

    I read the opinions of several “experts,” both American and European, who suggested that they give Greenland to Trump, just to “preserve the peace.”

    And it turns out it was all a bluff. Those little weasels would have bent to his will, and that’s how we got here. If Trump’s parents had kicked his ass as a child, every time he threw one of his screaming tantrums, we wouldn’t be here now. But now that we are here, we are not obligated to continue his parents’ negligence.

    He needs to be told NO, loud and clear, and he needs to feel the consequences of his many, many crimes. Stop coddling this treasonous pedophile, and start treating him like the psychopathic monster that he is.
