Anand wants NATO's new Arctic Sentry initiative to become permanent
Canada urges NATO to permanently integrate Arctic Sentry to enhance coordination amid rising Russian and Chinese influence, with exercises from Denmark and Norway included.
- During her keynote in Toronto, Anita Anand said she wants to see NATO's Arctic Sentry, launched Wednesday, made permanent and stated, `We would like to see that initiative be permanent`.
- Aimed at shoring up regional security, Arctic Sentry follows U.S. President Donald Trump's escalated threats over Greenland and combines Denmark's Arctic Endurance with Norway's Cold Response.
- As an umbrella, Arctic Sentry will coordinate allied activity and is headquartered in Norfolk, Va., with plans drawn up with input from Canada, Rutte said.
- Canada last week opened a consulate in Nuuk, Greenland, as a show of solidarity with Denmark, but Anand did not specify what military resources Canada would contribute, leaving uncertainty about commitments.
- Military experts warn Russian ballistic and hypersonic missiles would likely travel over Greenland toward North America, while NATO's supreme commander said Sentry `underscores the alliance's commitment` and will address defence gaps.
