The next potential conflict over the Arctic is shaping up as a geopolitical struggle for dominance over its untapped natural resources, including vast oil and gas reserves, and control of new shipping routes exposed by melting ice due to climate change. Nations with territorial claims, like Russia, the United States, Canada, Denmark, and Norway, are intensifying their military and scientific presence in the region. The Arctic is emerging as a crucial strategic area, offering both economic opportunities and security challenges, raising the likelihood of disputes over sovereignty, navigation rights, and resource extraction, with global powers competing for influence.
