The dispute over Greenland continues as numerous countries from the European Union sent military personnel to the island in a so-called reconnaissance mission.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump, who keeps claiming that his country needs to control the island, just announced a new set of tariffs against all nations that have sent troops.<\/p>\n

In a post on his social media platform TruthSocial, the POTUS said the tariffs will impact Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland.<\/p>\n

At first, the taxation will be 10% on all goods sent to the US starting from February 1, 2026. However, if there\u2019s no deal for the acquisition of Greenland by June 1, the tariffs will increase to 25%.<\/p>\n

In his statement, Trump emphasized that a deal means a \u201ccomplete and total purchase of Greenland,\u201d which, he claims, is essential for his country\u2019s national security.<\/p>\n

In a separate post on X, the analysts from the Kobeissi Letter estimated<\/a> that $1.2 trillion worth of annual bilateral trade will be impacted under these new tariffs. They also asserted that the potential acquisition of Greenland would cost the US around $700 billion.<\/p>\n

They warned that the US-EU trade war, which began last year shortly after Trump\u2019s inauguration, just \u201cescalated to a whole new level,\u201d as it\u2019s clear that Greenland has become the POTUS\u2019s \u201ctop strategic focus.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recall that BTC\u2019s price was among the worst-performing assets last year when Trump announced the first wave of tariffs against countless countries. It slumped from its then-ATH of $110,000 to under $75,000 in the span of just a few months.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s announcement from earlier today hasn\u2019t harmed bitcoin\u2019s price performance yet. The cryptocurrency trades inches above $95,000, showing little to no movement over the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n
