| description | In his article, Mr. Jónsson analyzes the changes that have taken place in the worldview of the Arctic in recent months and years, not least after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He comes to the conclusion that international politics and the structure of the international system have changed in important respects. Among other things, he mentions the entry of Sweden and Finland into NATO and the fact that the Arctic Council effectively became non-functional. However, he considers that changes in the Earth’s weather system, with the opening of the Arctic Ocean to navigation, are no less significant. According to Mr. Jónsson, the central role of the Arctic is set to increase further with more connections between the Asia-Pacific region and the Euro-Atlantic region through the Arctic Ocean. Thus, many opportunities and dangers will be created for nations and states in the Arctic, not least economic, so that it can be expected that the Arctic will become an arena of global politics and tension no later than in the mid-21st century. |
