At this year’s World Economic Forum, a deepening rift between U.S. President Donald Trump and European leaders was once again thrust into the spotlight. Trump has ruled out the use of force for now and has walked back earlier rhetoric, but he continues to insist on the U.S. being granted "right, title and ownership" of the Danish territory. Denmark, however, has pushed back swiftly and firmly, stressing that decisions concerning Greenland can only be made by Denmark and Greenland themselves, and that sovereignty is non-negotiable. How does the Trump administration currently view Europe and its allies? And what does this standoff mean for the future of U.S.-Europe relations?
