EU Leaders Warn Trump on Greenland, Panama Canal

News summary

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and other European leaders have expressed strong disapproval over President-elect Donald Trump's refusal to rule out military action to acquire Greenland and the Panama Canal. Scholz emphasized the inviolability of national borders as a fundamental principle of international law, following discussions with European leaders who shared a 'notable incomprehension' regarding Trump's comments. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot reinforced this stance, warning that the EU would not tolerate any threats to its sovereign territories. Trump's remarks, which include the strategic importance of Greenland for U.S. national security, have been met with skepticism and concern, with leaders emphasizing unity against coercive border changes. Despite historical U.S. interest in Greenland, Denmark and Greenlandic leaders have reiterated that Greenland is not for sale. The situation draws parallels to past geopolitical tensions, highlighting the importance of respecting international agreements.
