Скачать или смотреть The Davos Forum is shaken by Donald Trump’s presence amid the Greenland dispute.

The World Economic Forum in Davos opened on Tuesday, January 20. Donald Trump is expected to arrive on Wednesday.
The issue of Greenland is heating up at the forum, and Trump is scheduled to meet with European leaders to discuss the island, which he insists should come under U.S. control by any means necessary. In addition, Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on European countries that oppose his plan.
Donald Trump’s arrival is being closely anticipated at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, which opened on Tuesday, January 20. Air Force One had to make an emergency landing due to technical problems, forcing Trump to switch planes and delaying his arrival in Davos by three hours.
Originally, Trump was scheduled to deliver a speech in Davos at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, January 21. He is expected to boast about the U.S. economy under his leadership. However, the hottest topic at the forum remains Greenland, which Trump has repeatedly insisted must come under U.S. control, “by any means necessary.”
At the forum, the U.S. has also arranged a meeting with European leaders to discuss the Greenland issue. Observers are closely watching the potential confrontation between Trump and European leaders. However, French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen have all confirmed they will not attend this meeting.
The Greenland dispute is straining U.S.–Europe relations. Many analysts now see the U.S. under Trump’s leadership not as a partner but as a rival, and possibly a future adversary for Europe.
Recently, Trump has reacted angrily toward eight European countries that sent troops to secure Greenland, threatening to impose additional 25% tariffs on them. In particular, he threatened a 200% tariff on French goods after President Macron publicly opposed him. Macron encouraged other European countries to retaliate economically against the U.S.
At the Davos forum on Tuesday, Macron criticized the U.S., saying it treats Europe as if it were a servant, expecting Europe to comply with its wishes. He added that the European Union cannot bend or kneel to threats and coercion. Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said it is time to stop fearing Trump and to confront his actions directly.
It should also be noted that on Tuesday, Jens Frederik Nielsen, head of the Greenland administration, warned the island’s 57,000 residents to be prepared, saying the U.S. could attempt to seize Greenland. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda added that if the U.S. took such action, it would effectively end NATO’s unity.
