DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan 20 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent expressed confidence on Tuesday that the United States and European countries will find a solution ​over the U.S. administration's aim to take over Greenland, brushing off "hysteria" about ‌a possible trade war.

The US Treasury secretary has dismissed the EU’s ability to quickly agree a forceful response to Donald Trump’s Greenland-related tariffs, predicting the bloc would likely form “the dreaded European working group” rather than take rapid action.

I believe that it is very unlikely that the Supreme Court will overrule a president’s signature economic policy,” Bessent told NBC on Sunday.

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent dismissed suggestions that European leaders were considering dumping U.S. Treasurys or imposing retaliatory tariffs over Greenland.
