US, Canada, Finland Ink MOU for Arctic Icebreakers

The White House

In July, the United States, Canada, and Finland announced a groundbreaking new partnership that advances our national security by spurring the production of polar icebreakers and other capabilities. This partnership will ensure that the polar and Arctic regions remain peaceful and cooperative.

Today, just months after we kicked off this partnership, we are taking a significant step forward to enhance collaboration on the production of these vessels through the exchange of knowledge, information, and resources among our countries. This transformative partnership will enhance our ability to uphold international rules and maintain security in the polar and Arctic regions, while at the same time laying the foundation for a resilient and competitive shipbuilding industry that is capable of meeting both national and global demand for these critical assets.
