Sweden’s Prime Minister says “intensive discussions” are underway with European countries to agree on a coordinated response to Donald Trump’s tariff threats.

“We will not allow ourselves to be blackmailed,” Ulf Kristersson wrote in a post on social media, reports Sky News, cited by Rks News.

“Only Denmark and Greenland decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland.

I will always stand up for my country and for our neighboring allies.”

He added that this is “an EU issue” that affects far more countries than those singled out by the U.S. president.
