Europe set for showdown with US over Greenland
The US president has renewed threats to annex the strategic, mineral-rich island.
The White House says President Trump is discussing options to take over Greenland, including military action, in spite of objections from his European allies.
The United States has also said authorities in Venezuela have agreed to export up to 50 million barrels of oil to America. Donald Trump said the oil would benefit the people of Venezuela and the United States.
And anti-government demonstrations have again flared up in the Iranian capital, Tehran. We look at how widespread these demonstrations have become and claims that thousands have been detained.
