Who Owns the Arctic and Why it Matters

Russia

Own all of artiv

More US military bases to be added, increasing defense budget, more poverty, more homeless for ordinary people

❤❤❤

Those countries are close to the artic and I wander why some countries far from Antarctica want a piece of that pie ?

I live in Alaska and trust me the ice is still here. There is no global warming. I keep track of daily highs and lows on my property and in the last 5 years alone we have dropped in temperature by an average of 5 degrees.

The biggest country gets the most nautical kilometers. PERIOD

Hence the name, Arctic Monkeys.

Canada is the only country of the lot that doesn·t have a foreign intelligence service because it is too busy surveying and defending the land to bother with meddling in the affairs of others .

They are a lot of unanswered questions about the artic ocean. It’s the whirl pool of magnet pole and no fly zone.

Nobody owns Antarctica because it is NOT a continent but the outer edge of our realm that god created for us…..THEY DO NOT want you to know the truth so they keep us all enslaved… waaaaaaaake up sheeple 😅😅😅😅

I'm not sure why, once it's melted it wouldn't just be claimed international waters.

It's such an important question and this is not a final answer to your ending question: But by reason's intuition, the proposed rules in this situation, the law of the sea, sound quite acceptable and could make the difference between an Arctic war and development of commercial, natural resource, eco-travel and such purposes. Arctic oil is valuable if harvested for market soon; But the trade route is probably more valuable. Right now, oil is black gold; But our cutting edge automotive science has calculated a new engineering paradigm for auto-transport: which is far safer and superior in every way, including resource and eco-efficiency that can't be carried out with petrol; Because petrol doesn't communicate with computer systems and sensors, unlike electricity which does so at the rapid pace required. That's one pincher coming for oil; the other is a cleft monster claw of immediate expanding nuclear fission, which is potentially far better business for Russia(or anyone else with the vision and intestines to 'Just Do It,' like Oregon's Nike) and imminent nuclear fusion through state funded firms like America's Helion Corporation. Since we started sinking taxpayer(American) R & D money in billions into nuclear fusion research, there's been an enormous scientific/industrial breakthrough, a holy grail physics sought for fifty years of serious research; till people thought it was like pirate treasure. We'll finish the job. In the short run, regular nuclear fission is a better investment than Arctic oil in my view; Russian companies go into willing countries like Nepal and Sri Lanka and set up nuclear fission plants and storage systems(not to mention all of China,) then a country goes from the masses of its population and countryside having no or little electricity(we will carry out this regime even in Africa; the Russians will stabilize these matters and employ locals and natives of said nations) to having unlimited, practically free power like France did before it grew a sissy streak; and it won't have any more melt-downs than France did; or Russia has in so many decades. Chernobyl was back in the dinosaur days; when the nuclear power tech was just being developed. But nuclear fusion is the ultimate answer; It goes in stages of industrial evolution.

Lets pollute the Artic. Great...

Russia sold it to America & has regretted it ever since

As usual the colonialists will cook up some scheme to own the whole thing

Only Arctic lands are owned. No country can own an ocean.

Solution is that the Artic ocean is unowned and must remain undeveloped.

Идиот ! Медведев подарил Норвегии 90 квадратных милль Баренцева моря!

It well part is owned by inuient people living on the northern shores of Canada a lot of them are trained as army rangers because of there knoledge of the area they have saved so many people getting lost or surcoming to weather conditions and they patrol entire North of Canada Russia just wants anything that gets it closer to North America plus minerals money money at least the Eskimos keep it all natural and for ice if you look at James Bay North part of Manitoba the town of Churchill Manatoba gets surrounded by polar bears for the entire summer making a dangerous situation ice is taking longer and longer to freeze they even have the only polar bear prison in world for repeat offenders it's big business one of only taking tourists out to see them it's only accessible by plane or train no road but it's a good thing for people running tourist attractions but they constantly have polar bear patrols 24 hours a day never walk alone there have been a few people mauled or killed but it's because no food and they just look at us as food at least the bear jail keeps slot of bears from being shot and hold them for the summer and release in winter but the ice is going fast and longer to freeze again which eventually will push polar bears south looking for food

I would love to see a video on Finlands claim and a detailed explanation on the mental gymnastics needed to justify it.

China wants this one too.

I thinks it belongs to Canada 🇨🇦 & Russia 🇷🇺 with small USA portion attached to Canada & portion of Denmark. Canada still own most land mass " Islands near the arctic. Its simple : Canada would preserve it - Russia exploit it. I think Denmark 🇩🇰 🇺🇸 & Canada 🇨🇦need to create an arctic union for the 🌎 health.

Russia is building bases on its territory. Unlike NATO terrorists.

No one owns the Arctic or Antarctica. Countries don't even own the land man-made Boundaries they claim. They will find out very soon how wrong they have been for 7500 years.

As a Canadian I would sell it to anyone, it’s the worst place in the world.

2050, cLImATe cHAnGe

Russia🇷🇺

this land is your land , this land is my land . this land was made for you and me.

People be looking for more money as if they would be alive to enjoy it damn humanity 😓

No 2 ways about that, it belongs to the Greenlandic people!!!

I remember when Al Gore promised an ice-free Arctic by 2013

It's always the case of the US trying to stop other countries from going first especially if it's not considered an ally. Who assigned you to pick who can claim the North Pole or not? Russia literally the BIGGEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD is the closest to it. The US is just jealous it doesn't have enough ground to support its claim. Go Russia!

Why are they all except sort of USA and maybe Russia the most boring places? Ice.

Bukele que invada a todos esos

The pie idea makes the most sense to me. As for trade, the waters should be international territory for shipping lane purposes.

This universe belongs to God Shiva.. with history of millions of years .. remaining all are known for only 2000 or 3000 yrs only .. dnt b foolish .. if u dig under ur place there u get any hindu symbolic only .. its 💯 true

Australia should put in a claim seeing as though northern hemisphere countries have claims on areas of Antarctica.

Surely it is international waters.

In Canada we consider it ours… it’s literally part of us…

North Sea route will be the one of the most important routes in near future. Russia and China will team up to develop this route together.

Even China has its Arctic claim and policy, crazy

Sweden and Finland don’t have access to Arctic Ocean! The access is blocked by Norway

Let me guess.. Typical americans trying to own everything?

Considering the current state of Russia and the loss of economic clout due to the invasion of Ukraine, it is entirely possible, under a few scenarios, that Russia's bid could be lost as it loses international prestige and clout on the UN. It is estimated that up to 50% of the world's political experts believe Russia will diminish or even dissolve in the coming years.

No one really; but make sure the memo gets to Russia. They think they own every piece of land close to Russia.

correction. If the ice cap melts, it will not matter a didley shit on the water level. The ice cap is floating.

we should nuke it and melt the ice

In this fight for the north pole russia also claimed svalbard an internationally agreed upon norwegian island, and claimed that norways border should go at an angle to cut them of from the poles, and as such around 2010 russian fishermen were jailed after they fished in norway and refused to release the fish, to which a family of 4 was kidnapped in russia and russia said wanna trade...
