拜登上台后,美国北极政策发生新转向。拜登政府在有选择地继承前任特朗普政府北极政策的基础上,融入民主党关心议题,逐渐形成带有典型民主党价值观的北极战略。拜登政府聚焦政治、经济、军事多个维度,对特朗普政府时期的北极政策作出深度调整,包括北极相关政府机构与人事安排、北极战略优先事项、北极油气开发政策、北极地区基础设施建设四个方面。这些调整主要基于提升美国北极能力、重整联盟体系的迫切需要,以及建立应对气候变化全球领导者形象、推动改善美国北极地区发展状况的现实要求。然而,由于美国国内共和党及民主党温和派的反对意见,以及俄乌冲突引发的国际局势连锁效应,拜登政府北极政策的塑造和实施面临来自国内外的双重挑战。
<<After Biden took office,the US Arctic policy took a new turn. On the basis of selectively inheriting the Arctic policy of the former trump administration,the Biden administration integrates the issues concerned by the Democratic Party,and gradually forms an Arctic strategy with typical democratic values. The Biden administration focused on political,economic and military dimensions and made in-depth adjustments to Trump’s Arctic policy,including four aspects:relevant Arctic government institutions and personnel arrangements,military strategic priorities,Arctic oil and gas development policy and Arctic infrastructure construction. These adjustments are mainly based on the urgent need to improve the Arctic capability of the United States,restructure the alliance system,and establish the image of a global leader in addressing climate change and promote the improvement of the development of the Arctic region of the United States. However,due to the opposition of moderate Republicans and Democrats in the United States and the chain effect of the international situation caused by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine,the shaping and implementation of Biden administration’s Arctic policy is facing dual challenges at home and abroad.
