DETROIT, Jan 17 (Reuters) - U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Saturday it is up to Europe to decide whether it wants to raise new tariff threats from President Donald Trump against some European countries over Greenland.
"If I were the Europeans I would probably try to silo this off if they can. If they want to make it an issue in the trade deal that's really up to them and not us," Greer told reporters at the Detroit auto show.
Trump on Saturday vowed to hit some European allies with tariffs for opposing his over desire to take over Greenland.
