1704 GMT - Coercion isn't a good tactic, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk says in Brussels ahead of a meeting of EU leaders called after U.S. President Trump threatened to tariff European countries that disagreed with his aim to take over Greenland. Trump has since rowed back on his threats, saying he reached a framework for an agreement during a meeting in Davos, Switzerland. Tusk says the European Union should protect its relations with the U.S even if it is more difficult than before. "What we need today in our politics is trust and respect among all partners here, not domination and for sure not coercion," the former European Council president says. (edith.hancock@wsj.com)
