Of course, these are important and strategic sea routes across the Arctic, several players need safe routes in the event of external threats in the immediate environment.

The Northern Sea Way is controlled by Russia and passed by two large UK allies - US and Canada. So the best way to check the Chinese advances in there would be to cooperate with Canada and US more and to push Russia less into the Russia-China alliance.

Unless you mean adding Russia to NATO... I am not sure how that would work.

Since some years back the Swedish government has created a commission to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of a NATO membership.

NOOOO! Not more cheap #### at discount prices with a "made in China" label on it! It only lasts for ten years before you have to throw it in a ditch.

NATO and the west have already advanced more eastward than common sense should dictate.

No Russia! Nothing that is current. but in a future scenario, it cannot be ruled out if China and other actors in its environment allow themselves to be guided into an alliance that directly threatens NATO and "neighbors" in its environment.

For China to threaten NATO members (that are not US or Canada) via Arctic they would need to deploy with heavy Russian support and through narrows (Berring straits) that pass by Alaska. So sounds dubious.
