President Donald Trump said he’s reached an agreement with NATO on a Greenland framework and will not be imposing planned tariffs on European allies.
The president said in a social media post the deal “will be a great one” for both the U.S. and NATO allies, but did not elaborate on the details of the agreement with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
“Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st,” Trump wrote.
The deal eases tensions over control of Greenland, which Trump has aggressively sought to wrest control of from Denmark while citing national security concerns. Trump said discussions around a missile defense system pertaining to Greenland are part of the negotiations, which will be led by Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff.
