All goods originating from these countries and transported to the USA are affected.<\/p>\n<p>Should no agreement be reached with these countries in the future, whose representatives oppose the incorporation of Greenland by the USA, the import duties would rise to 25 percent from June 1, <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/115911344443637897\">Trump wrote on Truth Social<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Trump explains that these European countries owe the USA reparations because the United States has done so much for their security. Denmark, to which autonomous Greenland belongs, is said to willingly cede the largest island on earth.<\/p>\n<p>The 79-year-old defends his interest in Greenland with security policy reasons. Greenland plays an important role as a military base. If the USA does not gain control, it would ultimately fall to Russia or China.
