The European Union Is Preparing Sanctions Against US Companies Over Plans To Annex Greenland.
Money and Business Economy News — Follow-up The British weekly newspaper, The Sunday Telegraph, reported, citing sources, that the European Union is preparing sanctions against American companies if US President Donald Trump insists on his plans to annex Greenland.
According to the newspaper, these restrictive measures may target American technology giants: Meta (classified as extremist in Russia), Google, and Microsoft.
Brussels may also restrict the operations of the "X" platform and impose restrictions on US banks and financial institutions.
The newspaper confirmed that the scenario of European countries closing American military bases on their territories is also under consideration.
The Sunday Telegraph described these measures as a last resort, adding that they might be taken if Trump rejects a proposal from Britain and key EU member states to deploy a NATO force in Greenland to prevent the island from joining the United States.
According to a decision by the Tverskoy Court in Moscow dated March 21, 2022, Meta, the company that owns Facebook and Instagram, was recognized as extremist and its activities are prohibited in Russia. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=64458
