Description
In this news round-up of the week for Friday January 16th, 2026: Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Corina Machado hands her medal to President Trump - and it's as cringeworthy as you would expect. Trump threatens punitive action against the countries standing up for Greenland, even as US lawmakers are drawing a line. More consequences of Trump's policies become visible, as Canada's Mark Carney agrees a major deal with China's Xi Jinping. And President Trump is taking a major delegation to the World Economic Forum in Davos - which is odd, because they're supposed to be the anti-MAGA.
