Donald Trump was sworn in for a second time on January 20. In the 100 days since, he has stunned the world with tariffs, threats towards Canada and Greenland, and a public spat with Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office. The US President vowed to "make America wealthy again" with taxes imposed on imports from almost every country on earth, including the UK. Mr Trump, 78, has imposed 145% tariffs on China, with Beijing hitting back with 125% tariffs on US imports. European Central Bank policymaker Piero Cipollone has warned that in a worst-case scenario, the trade war could lower global output by 9%.

In late February, Mr Trump met with Ukraine's President Zelensky in the Oval Office, alongside JD Vance, Marco Rubio, and Scott Bessent. The meeting, which was supposed to precede the signing of a minerals deal between the US and Ukraine, descended into chaos after Mr Zelensky was asked by a reporter why he wasn't wearing a suit. Vice-President Vance accused Mr Zelensky of not being thankful for US aid, before Mr Trump stepped in and told Mr Zelensky "you don't have the cards". Mr Zelensky was ejected from the White House before the minerals deal was signed or his press conference with Mr Trump was held. That isn't the only foreign policy controversy Mr Trump has stirred up since becoming the 47th President.

He has made several remarks about his plans to annexe Greenland and make Canada the "51st state" of the USA. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney revealed that during a March phone call with Mr Trump, the US President raised the matter.

"The president brings this up all the time. He brought it up yesterday. He brought it up before," the former Governor of the Bank of England said last week.

He has also said the US plans to take over Greenland, despite it belonging to a Western ally of Washington and NATO member, Denmark. In February, he said: "We need Greenland for national security and even international security. And we're working with everybody involved to try and get it. And I think we're going to get it one way or the other. We’re going to get it."

On April 27, Greenland’s new prime minister said the autonomous Danish territory is not a “piece of property that can be bought.”

On a visit to the Danish capital, Jens-Frederik Nielsen said Greenland and Denmark must stand united in the face of “disrespectful” rhetoric from the White House.
