The Global Threat Landscape in the Arctic | Security Disruptors

Описание: The Arctic is no longer “high Arctic, low tension.”

In this episode of Security Disruptors, we examine the Global Threat Landscape in the Arctic. From hybrid gray-zone operations and economic coercion to critical mineral competition, infrastructure vulnerabilities, and rising military posture across the High North.

As geopolitical tensions intensify following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Arctic has emerged as a strategic frontier. Hybrid threats, cyber intrusions, critical infrastructure sabotage, foreign investment risks, and expanding NATO activity are reshaping the security environment across North America and Northern Europe.

Our panel explores:
Hybrid warfare and gray-zone tactics in the Arctic
Critical minerals, rare earths, and supply chain security
Chinese and Russian strategic interests in the High North
Indigenous governance, economic security, and infrastructure gaps
NATO’s northern flank and evolving deterrence posture
Public-private partnerships and Arctic investment strategy

Featuring:
• Mads Qvist Frederiksen
• Sean Moon
• Alex Dalziel
• Calvin Chrustie

Hosted by Stuart McNish

The Arctic is central to global security, economic resilience, and strategic competition. What happens in the High North will shape the future of alliance cooperation, defense investment, and sovereignty in the decades ahead.
