US EditionTrump shares Macron message offering G7 summit, questioning Greenland tactics
Macron sent Trump a private message questioning his Greenland plans and proposing a G7 meeting in Paris including Russia, Ukraine, and Syria, amid rising tariff threats, officials said.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump posted a late-night spree on Truth Social with memes about Greenland and applied a 10% tariff to Denmark, the United Kingdom, and Germany.
- The posts mixed domestic issues like ICE raids and Lisa Cook with Greenland, a plan U.S. Senator Marco Rubio said last year President Donald Trump supported as a "monumental achievement".
- Trump shared Macron's message saying, `We are totally in line on Syria... I do not understand what you are doing on Greenland`, and Rutte's alleged text praising him on Greenland, posted on Truth Social.
- Trump's posts included a mislabeling when he called Mark Rutte 'the Secretary General of NATO', while NATO members warned that seizing Greenland would undermine the alliance and Trump wrote, `There is no doubt that China and Russia have noticed this act of total weakness.`
- Posts tied the exchanges to the World Economic Forum, Davos, and a G7 meeting in Paris proposed by Emmanuel Macron, while Trump shared doctored and AI-generated images, including one planting a U.S. flag on Greenland.
