Summary:
Distrustful relations between neighbors in the High North is a multi-actor game – on all sides – no willingness to meet, listen and compromise will play into the hands of those who want confrontation – on all sides – validating the claim that ‘they are out to get us’ – pushing the spiral of distrust and conflict further up. Conversely, willingness to meet, listen and compromise will play into the hands of those who want cooperation – on all sides. It will be the first steps out of the current spiral leading to potential confrontation on our continent.
