The security situation in the Arctic has changed significantly since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, although the military buildup in the region began well before 2022. Katarzyna Zysk, professor of International Relations and Contemporary History at the Norwegian Institute for Defence Studies, joins the podcast to discuss Russia’s military posture in the Arctic, the effects of NATO enlargement, and the overall geopolitical situation in the region, including the role of China and Russia’s efforts to reach out to other non-Arctic states. Prof. Zysk also explains how various technologies, such as drones and artificial intelligence, will shape the Arctic security environment in the years ahead.
