Grönland, USA-tullar och de tyska truppernas reträtt från Grönland

Det har inte framgått riktigt klart så jag frågade Copilot som svarade: 

President Trump har aviserat 10 % tullar på varor från åtta europeiska länder: Danmark, Sverige, Frankrike, Tyskland, Nederländerna, Finland, Norge och Storbritannien.

Tullarna riktas inte mot alla EU‑länder, utan mot specifika länder som USA anser motarbetar dess Grönlandsplaner.

Germany’s finance chief said Trump has reached a red line and urged Europe to prepare its strongest trade countermeasure in response,

though Chancellor Friedrich Merz later stroke a more cautious tone, adding he’s trying to persuade French President Emmanuel Macron to tone down his response to Trump’s tariff threat.

“France is affected by the American tariffs to a different extent than we are,” Merz told reporters Monday in Berlin, adding that it was therefore understandable that Macron wanted “to react a little more harshly than we do.”

“Nevertheless, we are trying and succeeding in adopting a common position” before a special EU summit to discuss the next steps on Thursday in Brussels, Merz said.
