January 17, Fineko/abc.az. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump wants to include Greenland in his country.

ABC.AZ informs that perhaps this may be linked with the desire to gain access to impressive oil and gas reserves.

As the European edition of Politico notes, this territory can turn into a big business for mining companies. Greenland's oil reserves are estimated at 31.4 million barrels of oil equivalent, and 4.2 trillion cu m of natural gas. However, production of this volume requires large investments, although business profitability will remain high in any case.

Greenland has a moratorium on hydrocarbon production because of high environmental risks.
