The Current Security and Geopolitical Status of the Arctic

This panel will examine the current European and North American security landscape with regard to the Arctic and whether or not “low tension” continues to be a characteristic of security in the Arctic. The panel will discuss measures that can be taken to try and keep the Arctic an area of low tension in spite of the current geopolitical situation and increased military activity along the new NATO-Russia border in the Arctic. At the same time, it is important not to ignore the threats the Arctic 7 face in light of the new geopolitical situation. Can the right balance be struck?
