Summary/Abstract: The Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the world. The region is warming four times faster than the rest of the world.2 Once considered a zone of peace and exceptionalism that was relatively sheltered from global politics, the Arctic has progressively (re)entered the forum of international affairs over the last decade, both due to interests in northern natural resources now made more accessible by the climate emergency, and Russia’s unprovoked invasions of Ukraine in 2014 and 2022.
