WEF Davos 2026 Live: Trump Arrives Amid Greenland Tensions and Rising Tariff Fears
US President’s WEF visit comes amid tensions with NATO partners and plans to unveil an expanded ‘Board of Peace’
US, Jan 21 : President Donald Trump is set to attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, projecting confidence as he looks to extend American influence far beyond its borders. His high profile appearance comes at a time of rising geopolitical tension, following threats of tariffs against Denmark and at least seven other NATO allies, reportedly linked to US demands over control and strategic influence around Greenland.
The developments have sent European capitals into a flurry of diplomatic activity, with concerns growing that the dispute could deepen strains within the NATO alliance. Officials across Europe are weighing their response as uncertainty mounts over Washington’s next moves.
At Davos, Trump is also expected to unveil an expanded version of his proposed “Board of Peace,” an initiative that some allies view as a direct challenge to the United Nations-led global order. While US officials insist the President remains firmly committed to his “America First” doctrine, critics argue that his agenda could significantly reshape global alliances and multilateral institutions.
As Trump engages with world leaders, business executives, and policymakers at Davos, attention will remain focused on how his statements and proposals influence already fragile transatlantic ties and the broader global balance of power.
