Keir Starmer has said the US president’s threat to impose tariffs on allies over Greenland is ‘completely wrong’, adding that a trade war was in no one’s interest.
Speaking at a Downing Street press conference, Starmer said the UK supports the ‘fundamental right’ of Greenland and Denmark to decide the future of the Arctic territory. He added that Greenland’s security is becoming increasingly important as ‘strategic competition’ in the region intensifies, requiring ‘stronger collective defence’
