US President Donald Trump said Wednesday he reached a framework for a deal over Greenland following a meeting with NATO chief Mark Rutte, and that he would therefore waive tariffs scheduled to hit European allies.
“We have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social that provided no details on the framework, adding: “Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st.”
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump ruled out an invasion of the world’s largest island.
