欧盟在等待批准之前,可使用其新的反胁迫工具对付美国对格陵兰的关税威胁。 The EU may use its new anti-coercion tool against U.S. tariff threats over Greenland, pending approval.

为应对美国威胁对丹麦征收关税,除非它出售格陵兰,否则可以启动欧盟旨在对抗第三国经济压力的反胁迫文书。 The EU’s Anti-Coercion Instrument, designed to counter economic pressure from third countries, may be activated in response to U.S. threats of tariffs on Denmark unless it sells Greenland. 该工具允许欧盟实施贸易和投资限制,但需要四个月的评估和成员国的批准。 The tool allows the EU to impose trade and investment restrictions, but requires a four-month assessment and member state approval. 虽然从未使用过,但尽管跨大西洋关系面临风险,欧洲对胁迫的日益关切促使人们呼吁部署它。 Though never used, growing European concern over coercion has prompted calls to deploy it, despite risks to transatlantic relations.
