Trump's 10% Tariffs on Greenland: US Claims Control

On 17 January 2026, President Donald Trump announced the imposition of 10 percent tariffs on Greenland, to take effect next month, citing the need to secure American influence over the Arctic island. The move comes amid heightened tensions between the United States and the United Kingdom, with Trump framing the tariffs as a defensive strategy. GB News host Greg Swenson defended the policy, arguing that the tariffs are a necessary step to maintain U.S. control over Greenland and prevent foreign interference. The announcement follows Trump’s broader trade agenda aimed at protecting American economic interests.
