President Donald Trump declared on Truth Social that massive oil, gas and mineral exploration is preparing to begin in Greenland. He highlighted the island’s vast reserves, claiming they surpass those of almost any other land worldwide. Trump also emphasized Greenland’s strategic military value, noting that any future attack on the United States would have to pass through the semi‑autonomous island, where U.S. defense forces can intercept drones, missiles and other weapons. The announcement follows a security agreement signed more than four weeks earlier by the United States, Greenland and Denmark, which expands U.S. military presence and allows for resource extraction cooperation. Trump’s remarks signal a renewed focus on Arctic resources and defense strategy. The deal, with no expiration date, also blocks non‑NATO countries from establishing bases on the island without agreement from the parties, reinforcing U.S. control.
