Abstract
Abstract Denmark and Norway are strategically located near two of the major Soviet fleets stationed at Kaliningrad and Murmansk. In order for the Baltic Fleet stationed at Kaliningrad to gain access to the high seas of the North Atlantic Ocean, it must pass through the Belts, the Kattegat, the Skaggerak, and the North Sea or the Straits of Dover. In order for the Northern Fleet stationed at Murmansk to gain access to the high seas of the North Atlantic Ocean, it must pass through the Svalbard Passage between the North Cape of Norway and the Svalbard archipelago down through the Greenland‐Iceland‐United Kingdom (GIUK) gap. These strategic locations of Denmark and Norway give rise to several security issues that affect the law of the sea policies of both states.
