Goal: We call on US and Russian leaders to ensure that all negotiations over the Bering Strait and Arctic territories are transparent, prioritize climate justice, respect Indigenous sovereignty, and reject militarization and resource exploitation that endanger
The Arctic is at a crossroads. As ice melts and new shipping routes open, the region is becoming a flashpoint for geopolitical rivalry, resource extraction, and military buildup. The Trump-Putin summit in Alaska threatens to accelerate these trends, putting profit and power above people and the planet.
Alaska and the Bering Strait are home to unique ecosystems and Indigenous communities whose voices have been ignored in high-level negotiations. The rush to exploit oil, gas, and rare earth minerals will only worsen the climate crisis and threaten local livelihoods. Militarization of the Arctic increases the risk of conflict and diverts resources from urgently needed climate action.
We demand transparency, accountability, and justice in all Arctic negotiations. The future of the Arctic must be decided by its people, not by secret deals between superpowers. The world is watching—stand up for climate, peace, and Indigenous rights!
Key Demands
- Ensure all US-Russia negotiations over the Bering Strait and Arctic territories are fully transparent and open to public scrutiny.
- Guarantee meaningful participation and consent from Indigenous peoples in all decisions affecting their lands and waters.
- Reject any expansion of oil, gas, and mineral extraction in the Arctic, prioritizing climate action and ecological protection.
- Halt the militarization of the Arctic region and invest in peaceful cooperation and scientific research.
- Establish binding international agreements to protect the Arctic environment and uphold human rights.
