Starmer; Trump’s Tariff Threat ‘Completely Wrong’

LONDON (AP) — U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer says U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to impose tariffs on allies over Greenland is “completely wrong.” He believes a trade war is in no one’s interest. Starmer emphasizes Britain’s support for Greenland and Denmark’s right to decide the Arctic island’s future. He has worked to maintain a strong relationship with Trump, highlighting the importance of the U.K.-U.S. partnership. However, he insists this doesn’t mean ignoring differences. At a news conference in London, Starmer said being pragmatic doesn’t mean being passive, and partnership doesn’t mean abandoning principles.
