VESTMANNAEYJAR, Iceland — Arctic security and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine were top of mind on Sunday as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrived in Iceland for a…
On Twitter, Zelenskyy said he offered Trudeau Ukraine’s assessment of what he referred to as the “attempted coup” in Russia and the impact Ukraine thinks it will have on the Russian hostilities in his country.
Mathieu Landriault, director of the Observatory for Arctic Policy and Security, said the issue remains “fragile,” adding that without co-operation with Russia — which has a huge Arctic coastline — the council does not have data related to how climate change is affecting a major part of the region.Article content
NATO has paid increasing attention to the Arctic in light of aggression from both Russia and China, Paris added. The Nordic leaders’ summit is happening less than three weeks before NATO leaders travel to Lithuania to meet with allies and discuss the situation in Ukraine. Landriault said the meeting in Iceland serves as a chance for Canada and the Nordic countries to demonstrate further support for Sweden’s entry into NATO, which Turkey and Hungary have not endorsed.
Paris said he expects Trudeau may draw attention to those same commitments during his visit to Iceland. Besides a shared interest in security, the Canadian government also has trade interests with the five Nordic countries, with two-way trade totalling roughly $13 billion last year.Article content
