TEHRAN (Defapress) - According to RT Arabic, the Wall Street Journal reported that the European Union is concerned that US President Donald Trump will move on to other European countries' territories after occupying Greenland.

The report states that Europe may take decisive action, such as blocking the use of US military bases in the region.

The Economist also reported yesterday that European countries may move towards closing US military bases on their territory.

According to the report, this action by European countries comes after US President Donald Trump's threats to occupy Greenland.

The report states that the future of the US military presence in Europe may become a central issue; while a number of these countries consider the US military presence to be a guarantee of their security, others believe that this issue should be used as a lever of pressure against Washington.
