Sammendrag
Over the last few years, Antarctica has attracted the interest of a significantly increasing number of both
state and non-state actors, serving as a physical and political arena that hosts a unique combination of socioecological developments. Ranging from the ongoing battle against climate change to more complex
geopolitical and economic antagonisms arising from resource extraction and fishing, the frozen continent
will undoubtedly enter mainstream political discourse with increased force in the coming years. This policy
brief aims to explore Greece’s developing relationship with Antarctica, building on the momentum of the
first-ever official Greek expedition to the continent. After examining the status quo of established GreekAntarctic relations, this brief attempts to decode the motives behind the recent intensification of Greece’s
Antarctic engagement, while also exploring proposals that could promote Greek geostrategic interests in the
region.
