Abstract
When the topic is international security, media coverage usually provides the reader
with tensions in the Middle East, South China Sea or, since February 2022, on the
Russia-Ukraine war. Although these are hotspots of instability, one should not neglect,
however, the (apparently) more remote Arctic where ice and geopolitics melt
faster than before. In this article we thus claim that the Arctic is a new frontier open
to overt competition. The case of the North Pole region seems to point to a Sino-
Russian revisionism which sees borders as flexible instead of fixed to accommodate
the interests of states dissatisfied with the status quo.
