#Trump would serve as its inaugural chairman and each member state shall serve a term of no more than three years from this charter's entry into force, subject to renewal by the chairman, the report said.

Appears that the most recent negotiated EU-US trade deal is dead, with Renew Europe and EPP party leadership rejecting the deal in light of Trump’s recent threats.
French President Macron on Trump’s Greenland threats:
“No intimidation nor threat will influence us, neither in Ukraine, nor in Greenland, nor anywhere else in the world… Tariff threats are unacceptable and Europeans will respond to them in a united and coordinated manner.”

Marx remarks somewhere that historical events appear, as it were, twice: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.
He forgot to add that beneath the farce also can lurk tragedy.
Sorry, but I’m not mad at this. Are you?
Or is it, “2A for me, but not for thee”?
Russia loves Trump’s message on Greenland, as Putin has openly said. It is worth asking whether this was a Russian idea. It certainly divides and could destroy #NATO, and it distracts from Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

It is also on this basis that we decided to take part in the exercise organized by Denmark in Greenland. We fully assume this decision, because security in the Arctic and at the outer edges of our Europe is at stake.
No intimidation or threat will influence us - neither in Ukraine, nor in Greenland, nor anywhere else in the world when we are confronted with such situations. Tariff threats are unacceptable and have no place in this context.
