Donald Trump Davos Speech | Top Headlines Of The Day: January 22, 2026
President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he was canceling his planned tariff on US allies in Europe over US control of Greenland after he and the leader of NATO agreed to a 'framework of a future deal' on Arctic security. The abrupt about-face emerged hours after Trump had insisted that he wants to "get Greenland, including right, title and ownership," but said he would not use force to do so while deriding European allies and vowing that NATO should not try to block US expansionism. In an extraordinary speech at the World Economic Forum, the president said he was asking for territory that was "cold and poorly located." He said the US had effectively saved Europe during World War II and even declared of NATO: "It's a very small ask compared to what we have given them for many, many decades."
