Trump in Davos to talk peace as immigration crackdown advances at home

Hello and welcome to our live coverage.

Donald Trump is at the World Economic Forum in Davos, where on Thursday he, alongside several other leaders, signed the Board of Peace charter. While initially framed as a narrow mechanism to oversee the reconstruction of Gaza, the board is now instead being positioned as a standing global body, chaired by Trump himself, operating in parallel to the United Nations.

Some countries such as France and Britain have declined the offer of membership, with Yvette Cooper, the UK foreign secretary, expressing concern over the announcement on Monday that Vladimir Putin had been invited to join.

In a marathon speech in Davos on Wednesday, Trump reiterated his desire to take control of Greenland, “including right, title and ownership,” but backed away from threats of military intervention. He later announced a “framework for a future deal” to settle the issue and withdrew the threat of tariffs against eight European countries.

Meanwhile back home, Trump’s immigration crackdown continues with enforcement efforts persisting in Minnesota and spreading to target Somali communities in Maine.

In Washington, congressional Democrats are coming out en masse to reject a bill to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

“In the last 24 hours, we’ve heard our members speak loudly that ICE isn’t doing enough, these reforms aren’t doing enough. This lawlessness has to stop,” said Pete Aguilar, the chairman of the party’s caucus.
