Dear MEL Topic Readers,
US to appoint its first Arctic Ambassador
Will there be a US embassy somewhere in the Arctic soon? At least, there will be an ambassador from the US soon to engage with other Arctic countries including Canada, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, and Russia. Recently, Russia and China have become more active in the region as climate change has been melting ice and making the Arctic Sea more accessible. Their military presence in the North poses a strategic challenge for the NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) alliance, including the US. So, the US wants to have a higher-level representation in the region. Will there be ambassadors on the Moon and Mars soon?
Enjoy reading the article and learning about the strategic importance of the Arctic region.
