EU Leaders Hold Emergency Summit Amidst US Tariff Threats

EU leaders held an emergency summit in Brussels to address the threat of tariffs from Donald Trump and the potential purchase of Greenland by the United States. Although Trump backed down, the EU remains on alert and has countermeasures ready, including the imposition of €93 billion in tariffs on US products and the activation of the Anti-Coercion Instrument. Leaders emphasized the need for continued vigilance and underscored that Greenland's sovereignty is a 'red line'. The summit highlighted the need to restore trust between the EU and the US and return to serious discussions on security and the economy.
