Trump-affiliated firm delays Greenland oil plans
An American company linked to former President Donald Trump has postponed its plans to explore oil in the Jensen Land area in Greenland, following a strongly worded warning from the island's government over the introduction of equipment without the necessary permits. The company, Greenland Energy, and its partner, Mail 80, have halted drilling operations and confirmed that they are working to obtain the required permits by winter 2027. This comes amid criticism from local authorities, who emphasized that the company does not possess the necessary approvals, especially after drilling equipment was brought into a strategic area without authorization. This delay occurs amid escalating tensions surrounding the project, which is intertwined with individuals and companies connected to the Trump administration. Greenland is considered one of the largest unexplored regions in the world, holding significant potential for oil reserves, despite previous unsuccessful exploration attempts.
