PARIS — Paris is working with European allies on a joint response to U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to take over Greenland, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said Wednesday.

"Regardless of the form of intimidation and its source, we have begun work at the Quai d'Orsay to prepare ourselves to respond and not to respond alone," Barrot told French radio France Inter.

"Once this work has been completed in the coming days, [we'll] be able to share it. Whatever form intimidation takes, we want to take action with our European partners," Barrot said, adding that he will discuss the topic later Wednesday during a meeting with his German and Polish counterparts.
