She emphasized the need for the Arctic to be a priority for the European Union and NATO, advocating for a coordinated presence to prevent tensions, ensure stability, and address external interference. Tajani announced plans to visit Washington to discuss raw materials with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other partners, alongside launching an Italian business mission to the Arctic. Anna Maria Bernini stated that Rome would host the Arctic Circle Rome Forum — Polar Dialogue in early March, bringing together entrepreneurs, defense firms, scientists, researchers, and politicians.

The renewed focus coincides with Denmark and other allies’ announcement to boost their military presence in Greenland, following increased rhetoric from U.S. President Donald Trump regarding American claims to Arctic regions.
