A look at the Arctic's military, political & economic aspects from Trump's purchase of Greenland

The Arctic is undergoing unprecedented geopolitical changes. As climate change causes the ice cap to melt, this once desolate frontier is rapidly becoming a new arena for competition among global powers. The strategic value of the Arctic is mainly reflected in three aspects: as a commanding height for strategic nuclear deterrence, as the world's last untapped resource treasure house, and as a new shipping route that may change the world's trade pattern in the future. The video examines the evolution of Arctic strategy from the United States' purchase of Alaska in the 19th century to the present, with a special focus on the military confrontation during the Cold War and the resource competition in the post-Cold War era. The Arctic is currently forming a complex pattern of coexistence of US-Russia military confrontation and Sino-Russian economic cooperation, while the United States' strategic hesitation and China's rapid rise in the region are reshaping the Arctic geopolitical landscape.
