1. Last weekend, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to levy tariffs on Denmark and seven other European countries until they agreed to allow the United States to purchase Greenland, a semi-autonomous Danish territory. Which of the following countries would not face the tariff?

Norway

Germany

The Netherlands

Iceland

That didn’t keep Trump from confusing Iceland and Greenland during a press conference on Tuesday and again in a speech on Wednesday. The global spheres-of-influence system Trump appears to be gunning for would not lead to a world of restraint and peace, FP’s Stephen M. Walt argues.

2. Peruvian President José Jerí said on Monday that he would make himself available to prosecutors and a congressional committee that are investigating him for doing what?

Accepting undisclosed gifts from regional heads of state

Having undisclosed meetings with a Chinese businessman

Conspiring to postpone April elections

Bribing legislators to execute his political agenda

The meetings follow a regional trend of countries seeking out stronger partnerships with countries outside of the United States, which FP’s Catherine Osborn wrote about in Latin America Brief.

3. The World Economic Forum’s annual meeting began on Monday in which Swiss town?

Zermatt

Grindelwald

Davos

St. Moritz

As Trump........
