The United States and its allies in the Arctic need to increase the number of
sensors, patrols and intelligence sharing in the region to contain the
expansion of Russian and Chinese forces in the far north, defense leaders said
at the meeting this week.
“We are seeing more and more activity where Russia and
China are working together, and the Arctic is the most recent area,” said U.S.
Air Force Gen. Charles “CQ” Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
