EU shifts Arctic strategy towards security as threats rise
The European Union is reworking its Arctic policy, placing greater emphasis on security and defence amid growing geopolitical threats in the polar region. Rising strategic competition, including concern over Russia's military presence and the widening access caused by melting ice, is pushing Brussels to treat the far north less as a purely environmental and economic space and more as a security priority.
Why now: Geopolitical tensions and melting ice are making the Arctic an increasingly contested strategic region.
