Liderii europeni vor participa la un summit dedicat Arcticii, ce va avea loc luna viitoare în Finlanda

Finland will host a European leaders' summit in September focused on the Arctic, aiming to strengthen the EU's strategic approach to the region. Key leaders expected to attend include German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The summit, scheduled for September 13-14 in Rovaniemi, highlights the growing geopolitical importance of the Arctic, especially following recent U.S. and Chinese actions. Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo emphasized the EU's direct interest in the Arctic's stability and sustainable development. The melting ice cap has increased access to vital natural resources and opened new maritime routes, although experts suggest these routes will remain secondary despite climate changes.
