Sammenligning af Østersøen og Arktis som genstand for militarisering. Jeg finder at der er meget forskellige dynamikker på spil, og at Arktis umiddelbart er det mest problematiske område fordi det deroppe er strategiske kernevåben som driver udviklingen. Militariseringen af Arktis vil formentlig fortsætte i de kommende år. The Arctic will not be a peaceful exception in a militarized world. I compare the security situation in the Baltic and the Arctic. Both regions are militarized these days, but in very different ways. The most dangerous dynamics are in the Arctic, where nuclear deterrence between Russia and the United States is the primary driver of militarization. It will probably get worse in the coming years.
