6月10日,一家与唐纳德·特朗普有关联的德克萨斯州石油公司 Greenland Energy 向格陵兰岛居民宣布了其在该地的石油钻探项目 [1]。该公司声称地下蕴藏数十亿桶原油,并试图通过运送钻井设备来证明其勘探许可的有效性 [1]。为此,计划中有300个集装箱的钻井设备将被运往当地 [1]。然而,这一主张遭到了格陵兰当局首都努克的明确否认 [1]。
On June 10, Robert Price of the Trump-affiliated Texas-based energy firm Greenland Energy announced drilling plans to residents in Greenland [1]. The company intends to transport 300 shipping containers filled with drilling equipment to prove the validity of its exploration license [1]. Greenland Energy claims that billions of barrels of crude oil lie beneath the island's surface [1]. However, these assertions and the proposed project have been explicitly denied by authorities in Nuuk [1].
