Co-organizers: Russia Today International Information Agency
Arctic.ru is a special project of MIA "Russia Today", it is the only informational project
at the federal level dedicated to the Russian presence in the Arctic.
Politicians
around the world unanimously declare that the Arctic should remain a region of low
tension, but news reports suggest otherwise. Every day in the North, more and more military exercises are held and various conflicts arise. As NATO Secretary General
Jens Stoltenberg recently said in an interview: "The paradox of the Arctic is that you
have a tradition of cooperation, you try to work together to reduce tensions, but you
know that under the ice lies one of the most dangerous weapons in the world." The
meeting participants will discuss how to avoid a new cold war in the region and
whether an information war is already underway in the Arctic. During the event, the
results of an analytical study will also be presented on what topics the largest media
of the circumpolar countries write about the Arctic and about Russia's presence in
the region.
