WEBVTT - Headlines: Trump will ‘work something out’ on Greenland

0:00:02.040 --> 0:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>Today's biggest news from The Australian. I'm Christan Amiot, but

0:00:05.360 --> 0:00:10.959
<v Speaker 1>the Front's afternoon headlines. US President Donald Trump has downplayed

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>tensions with NATO leaders during a press conference marking the

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>first anniversary of his return to the presidency. He said

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>they'll work something out, but didn't rule out a possible

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 1>military invasion of Greenland. A consequence of your determination to

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:29.840
<v Speaker 1>take control of Greenland is the ultimate breakup of the

0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:32.200
<v Speaker 1>NATO alliance. Is that a price you're willing to pay?

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:35.320
<v Speaker 2>So I think something's going to happen that's going to

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:39.600
<v Speaker 2>be very good for everybody. I think that we will

0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 2>work something out where NATO's going to be very happy

0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 2>and where we're going to be very happy.

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump will this week come face to face with European

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:50.760
<v Speaker 1>leaders at a meeting of the World Economic Forum in

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Davos in Switzerland. They've accused him of threatening the global

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>order over his plan to buy or acquire the Danish territory.

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>He says America needs to take control of Greenland to

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 1>ward off China and Russia, and he's threatened to punish

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 1>European allies who resist with tariffs, but leaders of the

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>affected countries say his plan is unnecessary and potentially dangerous.

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.679
<v Speaker 1>National senators who crossed the floor to vote against the

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:23.120
<v Speaker 1>government's hate crimes legislation are waiting to learn their fate.

0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:27.959
<v Speaker 1>Front benches Ross Cadell, Susan MacDonald and Bridget mackenzie voted

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 1>against the bill in a break from Coalition solidarity. Kadell

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 1>told The Australian on Wednesday he's prepared to accept the

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:39.880
<v Speaker 1>outcome arrived at by Coalition leadership, including being asked to resign.

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Liberal leader Susan Lee and her National's counterpart David Little

0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Proud convened an early morning meeting on Wednesday to discuss

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the matter, with Coalition MPs agreeing it's a leadership test

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>for both. The bill passed the Senate without the National

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 1>support late on Tuesday, but racial vilification laws recommended by

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Special Void to combat anti Semitism Gillian Siegel didn't get up.

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 1>Prime Minister Anthony Albanezi on Wednesday morning downplayed a future

0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 1>push to pass the racial vilification laws and place the

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 1>blame for their failure firmly on the Coalition. David Beckham

0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 1>has responded after his son Brooklyn accused him and his

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 1>wife Victoria of trying to ruin Brooklyn's marriage. He told

0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 1>CNBC's Squawkbox program, it's all a big misunderstanding. They make mistakes.

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Children are allowed to make mistakes.

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 1>That's how they learn. So that's what I try to

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>teach my kids.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:36.680
<v Speaker 2>But you know, you have.

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 1>To sometimes let them make those mistakes as well. Twenty

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 1>six year old Brooklyn claimed in a lengthy Instagram post

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>on Tuesday he has no interest in reconciling with his

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:51.280
<v Speaker 1>famous parents, accusing them of sabotaging his wedding and launching

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 1>a press campaign against him. Check out those stories live
