OTTAWA — Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly is readying an “Arctic foreign policy” aimed at preparing for a more tense time in international relations.

Joly tells Bloomberg News that this will involve working closely with NATO peers, including Finland and Sweden, who recently joined the military alliance.

Her office says this is a foreign policy and not a strategy document, unlike the expansive plan Joly released regarding the Indo-Pacific region.
