1) Greenland's relationship with the USA:

In 2005 Greenland's Home Rule Government initiated the Joint Committee, hereby establishing a more formal connection with the US. Prior to this, the best example of US-Greenlandic relationship is the Thule Airbase in the Northern part of Greenland (established during World War II - but still in use). BUT, most foreign affairs are still the domain of Denmark.

2) Greenland's dependency on foreign oil:

Totally dependent on oil - mostly from Denmark. Greenland is, however, hoping to explore possible oil-reserves in Greenland in the future.

3) Greenland's policy on Nuclear power/weapons:

Denmark decides almost 100% of Greenland's foreign policy, and as such, Denmark decides this issue as well.
