LIVE from Davos 2026 as Howard Lutnick and Rachel Reeves participate in a high-profile World Economic Forum panel discussion, with global trade tensions taking centre stage.
The panel comes amid renewed concerns after former US President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariff measures, unsettling markets and reigniting fears of a global trade slowdown. The discussion is expected to focus on the impact of protectionism, inflation risks, supply-chain disruptions, and the outlook for growth in major economies.President Donald Trump renewed threats of sweeping tariffs, unsettling markets and raising fears of a fresh trade war. China’s remarks are being closely watched for signals on trade policy, supply chains, economic growth, and Beijing’s response to rising protectionism. Trump said he doesn’t expect too much pushback on his Greenland plan, ahead of his meetings at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Taking aim at the French president, Trump posted a screenshot of a message from Emmanuel Macron questioning the US position on Greenland. Trump also dismissed Macron’s decision not to join the “Board of Peace” aimed at rebuilding Gaza, saying “nobody wants him.” Russian President Vladimir Putin is among those invited to join the board.
The US president, Donald Trump, has suggested Britain’s decision to cede the Chagos Islands to Mauritius is among the reasons he wants to take over Greenland.
In a Truth Social post, he said the UK’s plan to hand over sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius is an “an act of GREAT STUPIDITY”. He said: Shockingly, our “brilliant” NATO Ally, the United Kingdom, is currently planning to give away the Island of Diego Garcia, the site of a vital U.S. Military Base, to Mauritius, and to do so FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER.
