“Spain is urging ‌the ​EU to move towards creating ‌a joint army for the bloc as a deterrence measure, Spain’s ​Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said in comments to Reuters on Wednesday ahead of a day of ‍meetings in Davos. The region should ​focus first on bringing together its tangible assets to properly integrate its defence industry, and ​then mobilising ⁠a coalition of the willing, the foreign minister said. … The comments come ahead of ​an emergency ‌meeting between EU leaders ‍later on Thursday ⁠in Brussels to coordinate a joint response to U.S. President Trump’s threats to buy or annex Greenland. ” (01/21/26)
