Donald Trump will address European leaders in Switzerland today after again refusing to rule out using military force to take Greenland. <\/p>\n

“You’ll find out” was the ominous reply from the US president when asked how far he would go to wrest control of the Arctic island, during a long and rambling White House news conference on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

His presence at the World Economic Forum in Davos <\/strong>will provide an opportunity for face-to-face talks with European leaders, with “a lot of meetings scheduled” about Greenland, according to Mr Trump.<\/p>\n

His overnight journey was disrupted by what the White House described as a minor electrical issue aboard Air Force One. The aircraft returned to Washington not long after take-off, so Mr Trump could board another plane.<\/p>\n

Tuesday’s “surprise” press briefing, held to mark a year since he took office, comes at a time of unprecedented tension between the US and Europe, fuelled by Mr Trump’s desire to annex Greenland<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is part of Denmark, an ally with which the US has a defensive pact, yet the president<\/strong> hasn’t ruled out seizing it by force and threatened tariffs on those who oppose his wishes.<\/p>\n

Asked whether he would endanger NATO<\/strong> by going after an ally’s territory, Mr Trump doubled down on his belief that the US “needs” it.<\/p>\n

“I think that we will work something out where NATO is going to be very happy, and where we’re going to be very happy,” he said.<\/p>\n

“But we need it for security purposes, we need it for national security and even world security.”<\/p>\n

Previewing the talks in snowy Davos, he claimed: “I think things are going to work out pretty well.”<\/p>\n
