Abstract

In the past decade, the peace and stability of the Arctic, scientific research in the region, potential business opportunities, and international governance have sparked widespread attention and debate around the globe. Driven by the expectations of the potential political and economic importance of the region, the international cooperation among Arctic states and Non-Arctic stakeholders has been developing rapidly. However, this paper argues that under the impact of intensified competition between major powers, growing security tensions, and the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Arctic is facing the new normal in political, security, economic, and social dimension. While China provides conceptual and practical contributions to Arctic international cooperation, how to seek the greatest common divisor within the Arctic Council, mediate the contradiction between Arctic exploitation and protection, enhance regional security cooperation, strive for a consensus-based decision-making process, and increase the interoperability of existing Arctic governance mechanisms could be the common agenda for Arctic international cooperation in the post-pandemic era.
