NATO allies in Europe are scrambling for a united answer after President Donald Trump threatened steep new tariffs tied to a bid for Greenland. European Union ambassadors are meeting urgently after Trump warned of sanctions on countries that reject any U.S. claim over the Arctic territory. Crowds have marched in Danish cities, including Copenhagen and Aarhus, voicing support for Greenlanders and rejecting the idea of a forced deal.

Trump escalates threats to forcibly annex Greenland as European allies move troops into the Arctic to show support for Denmark’s control. Several NATO countries are sending small contingents of troops to Greenland for joint drills with Danish forces. Officials describe the deployments as defensive and symbolic, meant to reinforce Denmark’s sovereignty over the vast Arctic territory. The moves follow President Donald Trump’s renewed statements that the United States could seize Greenland.

Federal immigration agents clashed with demonstrators in Minneapolis, detaining several individuals including tribal members. Protests intensified after agents pulled a woman from her vehicle during a routine stop. The Oglala Sioux Tribe reported three of its members among those arrested and transferred to ICE facilities. City officials disputed the federal tactics as overly aggressive.

Rights groups say the crackdown on mass protests has turned even more deadly this week. Protest organizers outside the country now estimate the death toll at more than two thousand people, far higher than earlier counts from activists. Phone service for international calls has been partially restored, but internet access is still sharply restricted across much of the country.

​Iran’s government is facing mounting global pressure as security forces move to crush spreading street protests. Demonstrators have rallied for a third week against economic hardship, political repression, and internet blackouts, even as officials restrict access to social media platforms. Security forces have been accused of firing on crowds, with human rights groups reporting hundreds of deaths and mass arrests.

Marches stretched from Los Angeles to Washington, where demonstrators chanted outside federal buildings and called for state oversight of immigration enforcement. The protests follow the killing of thirty‑seven‑year‑old Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent during an encounter that remains under investigation.
