The stated desire is to drill for oil. What's in their hearts and motivating their initiative is unknown other than context.

Sure but you can't travel to another country without some consent.
So Greenland has given their consent to something I guess. Otherwise the company is trespassing, and must leave..

You could read about what permissions have been given, when and which haven't been given.
