Abstract

Much has been said among observers and policymakers about China’s ‘hidden intentions’ in Greenland, but in fact, China’s intentions for the Arctic are anything but hidden. Explicitly, they include shipping and natural resources. Chinese companies, whether state-owned or private, regard Greenland as a new frontier for business, but they are also trying to align themselves with Chinese government policy.
