LONDON, Jan. 18 (Xinhua) — British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Saturday said US President Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on allies was "completely wrong."
“Our position on Greenland is absolutely clear: it is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and its future depends on the people of Greenland and the Danes,” Starmer said in a statement.
"Imposing tariffs on allies for NATO countries' commitment to collective security is completely wrong. We will, of course, discuss this issue directly with the US administration," he noted.
On Saturday, D. Trump announced that the United States would impose 10 percent tariffs on all goods from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Finland starting February 1 in connection with the Greenland issue.
According to him, tariffs will be increased to 25 percent from June 1 and will remain in force until an agreement is reached on the purchase of Greenland by the United States. –0–
