President Trump says he is exploring a potential deal on Greenland after talks with Nato. He backed off on threats to tariff European allies that had opposed his plan for America to acquire the island. We get reaction this from Nato partners. We speak to a Danish MP who says this is all very stressful for the people of Greenland and distrust the legitimacy of the deal. And we speak to the Winnie Byanyima, the wife of of Uganda’s veteran opposition figure Kizza Besigye, who says he is seriously ill in detention. Presenters: Anne Soy and James Copnall (Photo: US President Donald Trump holds a bilateral meeting with Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.
