A real Arctic war. That happens between Russia and the US in the north

Diana Francis editor Canadian National Post, Senior Researcher atlantic Council Direct anxiety is caused by the militarization of the region by Russia in 2008 The Arctic is Russia. " American and Canadian officials were stunned because before that the frozen Arctic Ocean, whose area is half the territory of the United States, was mostly ignored. This was followed by Putin's militarization, which, in combination with the invasion of Ukraine, convinced Sweden and Finland to join NATO.

Video Day is now seven of the eight Arctic countries of the world, because the vertex of the world is another potential battlefield. In response, Washington strengthened his surveillance and defense systems in Canada and launched planes and troops in Alaska to protect the North Perimeter of North America from encroachment and rockets. The struggle on the top of the world is not just a arms race, it is a struggle of Russia and China for hegemony in the field of trade and resources.

Russia has invested considerable funds in the creation of its own "Arctic Silk Road", called the North Sea route to ensure a navigable connection between Europe and Asia. It is estimated that a few years later in the summer months, part of the Arctic Ocean can be free from ice.
