US imports, which were set to be deployed if donald trump proceeded with his own tariffs, scheduled to take effect on February 1. The European Parliament had also suspended work on ratifying a US-EU trade deal agreed in mid-2025, in protest over US pressure to acquire Greenland. The reversal of these threats marks a critical turning point in global trade and geopolitical stability.
