No.10 Dodges Direct Criticism Of Trump Amid US Threats Towards Greenland
US President Donald Trump, left, and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer look at each other as they shake hands during a press conference at Chequers near Aylesbury, England, Thursday Sept. 18, 2025
Keir Starmer’s spokesperson carefully avoided any direct criticism of Donald Trump and his aggressive foreign policy even amid new US threats towards Greenland.
The US president stunned allies over the weekend by launching military strikes on Venezuela, kidnapping autocratic president Nicolas Maduro and announcing he will be “running” the country until a safe transition of power can take place.
He also renewed his threats against other countries including Colombia and Cuba – and insisted the US “needs” Greenland, which is Danish territory.
Using military force to take Greenland would mean launching an attack against Nato territory.
But Trump’s deputy chief of staff, Stephen Miller, has insisted Greenland should “obviously... be part of the US”.
It could put the whole of the defence alliance in jeopardy if Trump acts on his word.
The UK government has been careful not to call Trump’s........
