Trump loses ‘Mother of all deals’; EU Parliament freezes US trade deal over Greenland tariff threats

US President Donald Trump’s push to acquire Greenland has triggered a major setback in transatlantic ties, putting a key EU–US trade deal on ice. The European Parliament has frozen work on the agreement, citing Trump’s tariff threats against European allies opposing his Greenland plan. EU trade rapporteur Bernd Lange said the Turnberry deal has been effectively derailed and suspended indefinitely. The stalled agreement was seen as a cornerstone of US–EU trade cooperation, despite criticism over uneven tariff terms.Trump’s remarks at the World Economic Forum have further strained relations, raising fears of a broader trade confrontation.
