    Pretty much every EU member is “self-governing”. And unless I misread and that’s a Greenland-based company this is an international matter.

      It’s a Texas company named “Greenland Energy”.

      Greenland is not a separate EU member though. It is part of the kingdom of Denmark, but was given self government by Denmark to make them stick around after the colonisation and not go independent.

        It goes even further, Greenland is not an EU member, even though Denmark is a member. Greenland has some association with the EU as a member of the EU’s overseas countries and territories.
