| Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE ARCTIC REGION attracts the attention of a far larger number of states than those that are adjacent to it. The massive melting of Arctic ice provides broad opportunities for opening new maritime routes and for prospecting for natural resources, and the development of energy and trade; it is also fraught with a serious conflict in the Arctic. The international community has already appreciated the economic attractiveness of the Arctic, and states began to argue about the redrawing of Arctic boundaries. Arctic and non-Arctic states are becoming increasingly involved in the efforts to review them.
