Italy s Meloni says Trump s tariffs over Greenland dispute is a mistake

I wanted to tell you that the forecast of interest rate increases applies
to those nations that have chosen to contribute to the security of
Greenland in my opinion is a mistake and of course I don't agree with it
I share the attention that the American presidency is giving as I mentioned to you
many times to Greenland and generally to the Arctic a region that is
strategic situation in which excessive involvement by external actors must clearly be avoided
which could be hostile but I think that's how it should be interpreted in this sense
willingness of some European countries to send troops and participate in a
greater security not in the sense of an initiative undertaken in the
ot the United States but rather other actors
It seemed he was interested in listening but from his perspective
vista we're saying American if it wasn't clear the message that had arrived from this
part from this side of the Atlantic and frankly I'd say that basically I mean the
e risk is that initiatives by some European countries be interpreted as
ey I could say anti-American but that wasn't the intention at
all clearly the actors who are concerning are others altogether
This message seemed unclear to me from the start
