Canada's government unveiled a new doctrine aiming to counter threats in the Arctic, particularly from Russia and its collaboration with China, prompting military and diplomatic increases.
Foreign Minister Melanie Joly emphasized that the Arctic, traditionally low-tension, faces growing geopolitical rivalry, aggravated by Russia's ambitions and its partnership with China.
Defense Minister Bill Blair warned about the implications of an Arctic that is warming faster than anywhere else, leading to heightened security challenges in shipping and resource exploration.
Canada's strategy includes modernizing defenses and enhancing collaboration with Nordic allies, stressing joint military drills to counter increasing threats in the increasingly competitive Arctic.
