France sports minister Marina Ferrari revealed the 2018 FIFA World Cup champions have “no desire” to boycott this summer’s tournament despite U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent tariff threats.
President Trump demanded “ownership” of Greenland, an autonomous territory of Denmark, as part of his latest national security efforts. The 79-year-old went as far as to threaten eight European countries, including fellow NATO allies France, the United Kingdom, Germany and Denmark, with a potential 25% tariff on all goods sent to the United States if they continue to oppose his bid. He has since backed off on such claims.
