And again, as we've been reporting, it's 59 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 8: very difficult and challenging to get live information from the 60 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 8: ground in Iran because of the communications blackouts. That human 61 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 8: rights agencies estimate that the death told continues to climb, 62 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 8: and we're sitting closer to something like three thousand people. 63 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: And Bloomberg middle aged correspondent Jumana Burcecci there, we are 64 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: seeing an impact on the oil market right now.

But look, 84 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 7: if suddenly the threat of a lawsuit can take a 85 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 7: chair out of play, how can anybody think that that's 86 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 7: anything more than a de facto ending the independence of 87 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 7: the Fed.

In response to Republican lawmakers like 91 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 9: Tillis who are criticizing the FED investigation, President Trump responded, 92 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 9: I don't care and quote they should be loyal in 93 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 9: New York.

They 174 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 15: met yesterday with John Harbaugh, who spent the last eighteen 175 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 15: years in Baltimore, where it is they are working to 176 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 15: finalize a deal. Quarterback Dante Moore has decided to stay 177 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 15: in school. He'll be back with Oregon rather than turned pro. 178 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 15: He was projected as perhaps being the number two pick 179 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 15: of the draft. A baseball free agent signing, starting pitcher 180 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 15: Ranger Suarez, formerly with the Phillies, signed with the Red Sox. 181 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 15: That's your Bloomberg Sports update. 182 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: Stay with us. More from Bloomberg day Break coming up 183 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 2: after this. 184 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: Coast to coast on Bloomberg Radio, nationwide on Sirius Exam, 185 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 1: and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the 186 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: the Bloomberg Business app. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 187 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 3: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. The Trump administration does not 188 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: appear to be backing off its demands to take over Greenland. 189 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 3: After a high stakes meeting in Washington with the Vice 190 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 3: President and Secretary of State, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Loga 191 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: Rasmussen says a fundamental disagreement remains. 192 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 6: Greenland for the time being and for sleep and future 193 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 6: will remain within the Kingdom of Denmark. 194 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 3: That was the Danish Foreign minister after the meeting with 195 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 3: JD Vance and Marco Rubio and joining us from Brussels 196 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: this morning is Bloomberg Chief Europe correspondent Oliver Crook. 197 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 12: All. 198 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 3: We saw images of the Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers 199 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 3: coming out of that meeting doing fist bumps. But now 200 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 3: it appears the meeting did not go so well. So 201 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,239 Speaker 3: where do things stand. 202 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 14: Now, Yeah, there was a lot of videos of them. 203 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 14: There were also saw a few videos of them chainsmoking, 204 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 14: sort of going in and out the meetings and maybe 205 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 14: highlighting some of the stress that they've been under in 206 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 14: the last couple of days in those meetings with jd 207 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 14: Vance and Marco Rubia. Listen, I think the headline is 208 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 14: what we heard, there's the fundamental disagreement still remains. This 209 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 14: is what we heard from the Danish foreign minister. He 210 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 14: said that effectively nothing has been resolved at this point, 211 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 14: that the discussions were frank and constructive, which obviously is 212 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 14: just diplomatic speak for potentially not a whole lot getting done. Again, 213 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 14: the sort of starting position for the Danes for Greenland 214 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 14: is basically not in any material change to the status 215 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 14: quo legally. They say that the framework that exists currently 216 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 14: governing the relationship between the United States and Greenland between 217 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 14: under this treaty from nineteen fifty one, which is again 218 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 14: gives very expansive powers to the United States in the 219 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 14: way that it can sort of behave and deploy its 220 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 14: troops and military operations within Greenland. They say that that 221 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 14: is adequate to sort of secure the territory from any 222 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 14: sort of potential hostile activity from the Chinese, from the Russians, 223 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 14: which is what we've been hearing from Donald Trump. They're 224 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 14: trying to de escalate the situation. They said that they're 225 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 14: now going to start this working group, and I thought 226 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 14: it was interesting that the Danish Foremas just said that 227 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 14: the working group would be there to explore if if 228 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 14: they can find a common way forward, because that is 229 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 14: certainly not assured. 230 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 3: And in the meantime, we have europe nations beginning to 231 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 3: send forces to the Arctic, including Greenland, led by Germany. 232 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 3: I mean that alone is significant. 233 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 14: It is significant. I think right now it's much more 234 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 14: of a symbolic gesture than anything sort of material from 235 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 14: the military heft front. It's a lot of exploratory missions. 236 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 14: So we have the Germans leading it. He was thirteen 237 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 14: soldiers that arrived yes or today, I should say yesterday. 238 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 14: Sweden send a few officers, the UK Norway. We also 239 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 14: have the French. They're opening a consulate actually in Greenland 240 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 14: starting in February. They say that that is going to 241 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 14: be a diplomatic and political message, a signal that they 242 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 14: would like to send, but we should say, you know, 243 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 14: this is all about trying to explain, explore different frameworks 244 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 14: that the Europeans could potentially construct in order to assuage 245 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 14: some of the fears of the President of the United States. 246 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 14: But it's also when you have more and more international 247 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 14: forces on this territory. Again, we don't really believe that 248 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 14: the United States is going to launch a military campaign, 249 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 14: but potentially that gets more difficult when you have representation 250 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 14: from a number of different NATO allies. So maybe not 251 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 14: a military determ, but potentially a diplomatic deterrent. 252 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 3: Just thirty seconds left, Oliver, what is the European sense 253 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 3: about the status of NATO, the strength of NATO right now. 254 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 14: I think they're very concerned by what they've seen, particularly 255 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 14: in the last couple of weeks. I mean, we just 256 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 14: had the ambassador from Belgium or to Belgium from the 257 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 14: United States on our air this morning. I was speaking 258 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 14: to him and so was our colleague Stephen Carroll here 259 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 14: in Brussels, and basically talking about what is the nature 260 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 14: of American friendship to the European Union at this stage, 261 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 14: and that is a question he's getting from a lot 262 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 14: of different sort of diplomats. He was there to basically 263 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 14: reassure that this is a United States that stands firmly 264 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 14: behind NATO, that the Donald Trump is a big fan 265 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 14: of NATO, and that he believes in it as a 266 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 14: strong alliance. It is the most important alliance that the 267 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 14: United States has. But frankly, speaking the way that the 268 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 14: President has been speaking on some of the rhetoric, he 269 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 14: used some of the same exact language about going the 270 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 14: easy way in the hard way on Greenland as with Venezuela, 271 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 14: that does not reassure European allies at all. 272 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 273 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 274 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 275 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 276 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 277 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 278 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 279 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 280 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 281 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 282 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 3: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 283 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
