Von der Leyen vows ‘unflinching’ response to Trump with EU-US relations in turmoil – POLITICO

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned Washington to keep its hands off Greenland and said Europe’s response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats would be “unflinching.”

In a wide-ranging speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, von der Leyen said the self-ruling Danish territory’s sovereignty is “non-negotiable,” despite Trump’s repeated promises to purchase or annex it.

“Our response will be unflinching, united and proportional,” von der Leyen said, adding the EU would show “full solidarity” with Greenland and was planning a “massive” increase in European investments in the island.
