We always had access to the Arctic because we have Alaska.

Africa is a jump ball, right?
And I think this whole thing is just a big โ
It's a big head fake of Trump's longtime goal to break NATO.
He tried to do it in the first administration and got stopped.
He tried to do it yesterday in Davos.
And to their credit, the Europeans were like, nah, not this time, chief.
Not going to play that game.

You know, I haven't personally, but I have a good friend who is a guy who has worked all over the world in super highly technical, complex mining and petro work all over the world.
And as he's put it to me, he said, if Greenland was chock full of rare earths, it would still not be worth doing it because the difficulty of working there is like working on the damn moon.
And this is a guy who spent a lot of time in the North Sea.

If he says it's difficult, it's difficult.
