In response to US President Trump's remarks on the 14th about America's upcoming large-scale exploration of oil, gas, and mineral resources in Greenland, Greenland officials said it was “still too early” to launch these activities. Meanwhile, the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the agreement signed in September between the US, Denmark and its autonomous territory Greenland did not give the US any preferential treatment in terms of access to Greenland's natural resources. Greenland Deputy Minister of Mines Jon Hameken-Holm said that it is true that US companies are carrying out small-scale exploration activities on the island, but “it is still too early for large-scale exploration.”
