Denne artikel vil med udgangspunkt i de to EF-afstemninger i hhv. 1972 og 1982 argumentere for at denne politiske periode er helt central for at forstå den stigende internationale rolle, som Grønland aktuelt s… I den offentlige debat fylder forholdet til Danmark, USA og Kina oftest noget mere end EU. Denne artikel vil med udgangspunkt i de to EF-afstemninger i hhv. 1972 og 1982 argumentere for at denne politiske periode er helt central for at forstå den stigende internationale rolle, som Grønland aktuelt spiller i et foranderligt Arktis.

The novel strategy aims to secure a stable foreign policy direction for Greenland for a decade and signal intents to multiple audiences. The Kingdom of Denmark had to delay their common strategy (or, policy) for the entire realm until the Greenlandic strategy was published, while other Arctic states have been curious on the priorities of the strategy. In this briefing note, we outline the historical and (geo)political context of the strategy. We then move on to discuss some of the main items of the strategy by emphasizing the relative of weight of certain areas over others (US and North American Arctic over EU and Denmark), security and defense policy, and climate policy, and, thirdly, sketch out the implications of these priorities for Greenland’s (geo)political aspirations and diplomatic relations.
