Tore Sandvik explained that Oslo has observed heightened weapons development in the region, which hosts Moscow's Northern Fleet and significant portions of its nuclear arsenal.
The defence minister cautioned that President Putin aims to establish complete naval dominance in the Arctic, potentially blocking allied access to crucial maritime passages essential to Western military resupply operations during conflict.
Mr Sandvik told the Telegraph: "Russia is building up on the Kola peninsula ... where one of the largest arsenals of nuclear warheads in the world is located." The weapons pointed from this location target not just Norway but extend towards Britain, Canada and America, according to the minister.
He explained: "We are the eyes and ears of Nato in this area, and we see that they're testing new weapons, for example hypersonic missiles, and they are testing nuclear-driven torpedoes and nuclear warheads." Despite suffering approximately one million casualties in Ukraine, Moscow's Northern Fleet remains fully operational and continues expanding.
