Germany to decide on appropriate responses to Trump's tariff measure
The German government said on Saturday that it is in close coordination with its European partners regarding recent remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump concerning tariffs over Greenland, reported Xinhua.
In a statement, German government spokesperson Stefan Kornelius said that Berlin has taken note of the U.S. president's comments.
Germany is in close coordination with its European partners and a decision on the appropriate response will be made jointly in due course, he said.
Trump said on Saturday the United States will impose 10-percent tariffs on all goods from eight European countries including Germany.
Higher tariffs would apply until a deal is reached for the United States to purchase Greenland, Trump said.
Greenland is a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, with Copenhagen retaining control over defense and foreign policy. The United States maintains a military base on the island.
Trump has repeatedly demonstrated his interest in Greenland, from "buying" the island during his first presidential term, to the current employment of "a range of options" including "utilizing the U.S. military" to seize the autonomous island.
On Wednesday, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen and Greenlandic Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt met U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington. Following the meeting, the Danish and Greenlandic officials said "fundamental disagreement" over the future of Greenland remained.
This week, Germany has sent a military team to Greenland together with other European nations to carry out reconnaissance missions.
