I'm afraid we're heading into dangerous territory. Trump linked oil firm is preparing to drill for oil in Greenland without a license and at the same time Trump renews his threat to annex Greenland.

We are on the verge war with this United States of America and every European country needs to prepare it's young for the prospect of world war three because I think we are just months away from it.

At the same time the UK secret service has found a link between the recent surge of Moroccans into the Spanish enclave and Mossad the Israeli espionage group.

Germany, Finland, UK, Spain, Noway military had top level talks on Friday regarding the US and EU relations.

Things are very very bad

I had missed that there is oil under Greenland. I know about many ore deposits, copper and common metals to the exotic such as tantalum.
An oil spill, accidental or "accidental" would be very serious there. Mining would have lower ecological risk.
Some development should be permitted to bring money into the region.

That's a decision for Greenland.

Yes I agree, however Greenland and Denmark decide.
Certainly not the USA nor a Texan Company.
