🇪🇺🇺🇸🇬🇱 European lawmakers agreed on Wednesday to freeze indefinitely the EU-US trade deal that was reached during summer after US President Donald Trump threatened new tariffs on European countries who support Greenland.
Lead MEPs handling the file met on the afternoon and decided to suspend the process, officially postponing a vote that had been scheduled for next week. While a political agreement was agreed during summer, the deal still required approval by the European Parliament, which means that the Parliament can effectively block its implementation.

The United States is presenting us with a choice: accept dependency disguised as partnership, or act as sovereign powers capable of defending our interests
When a U.S. president threatens a European territory while using trade pressure, it is not dialogue—it is coercion. And our credibility is at stake
Greenland has become a strategic pivot in a world returning to imperial logic. Yielding today would set a dangerous precedent, exposing other European—and even French overseas—territories tomorrow
The European Union cannot remain silent. The agreement negotiated last summer must be suspended
Our anti-coercion instruments must be activated, and targeted measures adopted. This is not escalation—it is self-defense
The choice is simple: submission or sovereignty. Europe must choose freedom, responsibility, and control of its own destiny

🇺🇸🇳🇱🇬🇱🇨🇭 US President Donald Trump said after a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte that he had secured total and permanent US access to Greenland in a deal with NATO, without specifying how the deal would look like.
At the same time, Rutte said other allies would have to step up their commitment to Arctic security to ward off threats from Russia and China, refusing to condemn US threats.
