shared that massive oil, gas, and mineral exploration is set to begin in
Greenland, which he described as holding some of the world's largest easily
accessible reserves and offering unmatched strategic defenses against attacks
on the U.S. The announcement followed a recent U.S.-Denmark-Greenland security
