On 4 August 1948, in Godthåb/Nuuk, Greenland, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Denmark's modern Arctic policy was founded. The political initiator was Hans Hedtoft, the Danish Prime Minister. The centre of Denmark's Arctic policy is Greenland, but our policy is not a Greenland policy only. Arctic policies are about people and nature, about resources and security, about high technology and traditional Arctic patterns of life. In a high degree they are a matter of cooperation between the local population and the state authorities. All these elements were present when the Danish Prime Minister presented his modern Arctic policy in August 1948. |
