Swamp Notes: Greenland, USA
Donald Trump has an aggressive negotiating method: he makes big threats in order to extract concessions. But now that he’s floated the idea of invading Danish and Panamanian territories this week, America’s allies are especially nervous. The FT’s Nordic and Baltic bureau chief Richard Milne and US national editor and columnist Ed Luce join Swamp Notes to discuss Trump’s imperial ambitions.
