Europeans reeling as Trump imposes tariffs on 8 countries over Greenland dispute

BERLIN (AP) — Europeans were reeling Sunday from U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement that eight countries will face 10% tariff for opposing American control of Greenland.

The responses to Trump's decision on Saturday ranged from saying it risked “a dangerous downward spiral” to predicting that “China and Russia must be having a field day.”

Trump's threat sets up a potentially dangerous test of U.S. partnerships in Europe. Several European countries have sent troops to Greenland in recent days, saying they are there for Arctic security training. Trump's... Read More

Zverev, the runner-up at Melbourne Park last year, slumped in the first set against the 24-year-old Canadian before rallying on the back of his strong serve to win 6-7 (7), 6-1, 6-4, 6-2 on Rod Laver Arena. He's into the second round at Melbourne Park for the 10th straight year.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Corentin Moutet sliced in an underarm serve on match point and sealed his first-round victory at the Australian Open on Sunday when Tristan Schoolkate floated his forehand return too long.

The crowd at Kia Arena booed loudly but the No. 32-seeded Moutet didn't flinch, later saying he did what he needed to do to complete the 6-4, 7-6 (1), 6-3 win.

He said the choice of serve was more instinctual than planned.
