There is no limit to impudence: Russia claims to expand its borders of the continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean
Regarding this issue, Putin convened the Security Council, reports Reuters. But both Canada and Denmark have similar claims. In addition, Norway, which has become the main supplier of gas to the EU, has announced that it wants to expand its exploration on the continental shelf.
Studies indicate that about a quarter of the world’s untapped oil and gas reserves may be stored there. Over the past year, the Russian Federation has upgraded its military infrastructure in the Arctic. In response, NATO countries conducted military exercises in the region.
