Trump says framework of 'future deal' on Greenland reached after NATO talks as tariffs put on hold

Trump continues push for Greenland acquisition as he seeks new negotiations

Fox News correspondent Lucas Tomlinson joins ‘America Reports’ to give the latest on President Donald Trump’s efforts to have to U.S. take control of Greenland for national security reasons.

President Donald Trump said Wednesday he will not impose tariffs that were set to take effect Feb. 1, citing a "framework of a future deal" with NATO involving Greenland and the Arctic region.

"Based upon a very productive meeting that I have had with the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Trump said the deal, if finalized, "will be a great one for the United States of America, and all NATO Nations," and said the agreement led him to halt the planned tariffs.
