NATO Launches 'Arctic Sentry' Amid Greenland Tensions, Eyes Russia & China

  • NATO unveils 'Arctic Sentry' to boost coordination in the High North after internal tensions over Trump's Greenland remarks.
  • The initiative will coordinate existing national military exercises like Denmark’s Arctic Endurance and Norway’s Cold Response, not deploy new permanent forces.
  • Arctic Sentry aims to reinforce security in the Arctic, an area of growing strategic importance due to melting ice and increased activity from Russia and China.
  • The UK will double troops in Norway, and France and Germany will participate in coordinated drills under the new framework.
  • The move seeks to repair internal rifts and present a united front, refocusing on shared security concerns and stability in the High North.
