Macron Stands Firm Against Trump’s Tariff Threats: Calls for a "Unified and Coordinated" European Response

French President Emmanuel Macron has denounced President Donald Trump’s threat to impose punitive tariffs on European allies as "unacceptable." Macron vowed that Europe would respond in a "unified and coordinated manner" to protect its sovereignty and businesses, asserting that France will not be swayed by "intimidation" regarding Greenland, Ukraine, or any other global issue.

Macron defended the deployment of French troops to Greenland as part of a NATO-led exercise focused on Arctic security and international law. Sources close to the President indicate that he will consult with European counterparts in the coming hours to activate the EU's "powerful tools" for retaliation, signaling a potential trade showdown between Washington and Brussels.
