Trudeau off to Iceland to meet Nordic leaders ahead of NATO, amid Arctic uncertainty
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is on his way to meet with Nordic leaders ahead of an upcoming NATO summit and as uncertainty looms over the future of the Arctic.
World leaders also kept a watchful eye on internal strife in Russia this weekend after mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin led troops from his private Wagner Group in an armed rebellion as he called for the ouster of the country's defence minister. "Each of these northern countries has a very clear interest in ensuring the security and sovereignty of their territory."
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg warned of such threats during a visit to a military base in northern Alberta last summer, noting China has declared itself a"near Arctic" state and climate change was opening up access to the region. Iceland, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway have all voiced support for Ukraine since Russia launched its attack.
