Carney, Nordic Leaders Commit to Deeper Economic and Defence Cooperation

Canada and Nordic leaders committed to coordinated defence procurement, Arctic military ties, green energy expansion, and ongoing support for Ukraine to enhance resilience and economic growth.

  • On Sunday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Nordic leaders issued a joint statement in Oslo, agreeing to deepen economic ties and coordinate defense procurement across the six-nation alliance.
  • Carney is spearheading efforts to reduce reliance on the United States by tightening bonds with China, India, and Europe, positioning a trading order among middle-power countries amid increasing international coercion.
  • The leaders committed to strengthening military cooperation in the Arctic and expanding green-energy collaboration while providing economic and military assistance to Ukraine, as international trade is increasingly used as a "coercive tool."
  • Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederkisen stated the "old world order is gone," emphasizing the need for middle powers to build a new framework based on shared values and collective defense coordination.
  • Leaving Norway on Sunday, Carney is scheduled to meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday, marking their seventh bilateral engagement in just over a year of intensive diplomatic coordination.
