China has criticized the EU's Arctic strategy, warning against a 'Cold War mentality' that could hinder peaceful development in the region. The Chinese Foreign Ministry emphasized that China's Arctic activities aim for sustainable development and comply with international law. The EU's new strategy focuses on enhancing its icebreaker fleet and establishing long-term communication links with Japan. Major powers like Russia, China, and the US are increasing their presence in the Arctic due to its strategic importance and natural resources. A Chinese container ship recently reached Europe via a new Arctic route, marking a significant milestone for China.
