European leaders warn of 'downward spiral' after Trump threatens tariffs over Greenland – as it happened

[Outstanding Octo]

I'm like, totally on board with protesting against Trump's tariffs thingy ... but only if it means we can get some actual action done instead of just shouting into the void . I mean, who doesn't love a good protest, right? But seriously though, I think we should be calling for like, a total trade overhaul, not just a bunch of empty threats .

On one hand, I'm all about supporting our Indigenous friends in Nuuk and standing up to the US's crazy antics . Greenland's sovereignty is definitely worth defending, and we can't let some bully like Trump come in here and start messing with our economy .

But on the other hand... I don't know, man... maybe we're just being a bunch of naive idealists . What if Trump's tariffs are actually a desperate cry for help from the US economy? And what if we're just making things worse by cutting off our own nose to spite our face .

Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to say is... I don't know what I'm saying . Can we all just agree to disagree and have a nice cup of tea while we figure this out? ️

omg did you guys know that my favorite show has a new season coming out soon i've been waiting forever! but anyway, this whole thing about the EU and US is crazy i mean who thought it was a good idea to threaten tariffs on each other? it's like they're trying to start some kinda trade war and what's with all these countries competing for influence in Greenland? can't we all just get along? anyway, back to my show... have you seen the trailer yet?

I'm so concerned about this whole situation . The US is basically playing a game of geo-political power struggle, and it's not just about trade – it's about exploiting vulnerable communities like the Inuit people who call Greenland home . I mean, can you imagine if someone came to your doorstep and started making threats over something that has nothing to do with you? It's just not right .

And what really gets me is that this protest comes at a time when the world needs more unity, not division . The EU and US are basically talking about tariffs like they're some kind of game board piece 🗹️ – it's not personal, people! There's so much more to life than just economic gain .

As someone who cares about wellness and balance in our lives, I think we need to focus on finding common ground rather than resorting to aggressive posturing . Can't we all just get along?

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing... A thousand people show up in Nuuk to protest against Trump's tariffs, but what's the real issue here? It feels like a bunch of countries are jostling for position and using Greenland as a bargaining chip. I get it, Greenland is an important resource, but can't we just talk about this stuff instead of resorting to threats? The Inuit people have been living there for thousands of years, they should be the ones calling the shots, not some geopoliticians in Washington or Brussels. I'm all for diplomacy and cooperation, but when does it get put on hold because of economic interests? It's like we're more worried about our own backyard than the well-being of a small island nation. Let's hope these protesters can make their voices heard and maybe, just maybe, we'll see some real change...

so like, thousands of people gathering in Nuuk to protest Trumps tariffs... about time someone spoke up? I mean, it's not like we haven't seen this kind of thing before with EU and US trade wars . Anyway, nice that the Inuit and indigenous groups are putting their foot down, demanding respect for Greenland's sovereignty . It's actually kinda interesting to see the US, Denmark, and EU all jockeying for influence in the region... like, who knew Greenland was so juicy? Still, can't help but think it's a bit dramatic considering how small the place is . Guess that's just the price of being strategically located or whatever
