Trump's Greenland Move Sparks EU Trade War Worries

Germany is not happy. The country's finance minister has said that US President Donald Trump has crossed a line. The issue? Trump's threat to put extra taxes on NATO allies who didn't support his plan to buy Greenland.

A History of Conflict

This is not the first time Trump has caused trouble. He often creates conflicts. But this time, Germany says enough is enough. They want Europe to be ready to fight back with strong trade moves.

Germany's Response

The finance minister, Lars Klingbeil, spoke to reporters in Berlin. He said Trump's actions are provocative. He wants Europe to stand up for itself. The minister did not say what exact steps Europe should take. But he made it clear that Europe needs to be prepared.

Beyond Greenland

This is not just about Greenland. It's about Trump's approach to trade and alliances. He often uses threats and pressure. This makes other countries nervous. They worry about what he might do next.

The Tense Situation

The situation is tense. Germany and other European countries are thinking about how to respond. They don't want a trade war. But they also don't want to be pushed around. The coming weeks will be important. Everyone is watching to see what happens next.
