Trump tells Davos "I won't use force" for Greenland but says U.S. would be "unstoppable" in armed conflict
In his Davos address, Trump stated: "We probably won't get anything unless I decide to use excessive strength and force where we would be, frankly, unstoppable. But I won't do that." He demanded "immediate" negotiations and warned Denmark: "You can say yes, and we will be very appreciative. Or you can say no, and we will remember." Trump also announced a deal "framework" with NATO chief Rutte and suspended Greenland-linked tariffs on eight European nations.
