President of the European Council guarantees that he is “coordinating” a joint response on this topic
The president of the European Council stated that the European Union will be firm in defending the international law of its territory, after the US president opposed control of Greenland.
“What we can say is that the European Union will always be very firm in defending international law, wherever it may be. And, of course, starting in the territory of the European Union’s Member States”, promised António Costa, in a short press conference after the signing of the historic trade agreement between the European Union and Mercosur.
“For now, I am coordinating a joint response from European Union member states on this topic,” said the former prime minister.
North American President Donald Trump said today that he will charge a 10% import tax, starting in February, on goods from eight European countries, due to opposition to United States control over Greenland.
