The Russians have been perfecting their arctic craft since the beginning of the cold war. The amount of bases, airfields, and nuclear powered icebreakers up there outclasses any other nation. And they've been navigating those waters for decades.
Sorry to correct you, but it happens since the WW I. Cause of number of attacks from British and Danish sights back to 16-19 century at Russian North West areas, government of Russian empire set a Naval Base in Murmansk region (late 19 century).

The real problem for the West is not the Arctic itself, but the aggregation of trade routes within Eurasia (and further Africa), as an expanded Silk Road to be controlled now by the Chinese and Russians. Britain in particular used to receive huge profits from the control of maritime transportation, and soon a decent slice of it will be cut off from their interest. So nothing complicated - and the talks about climate change and resources in the Arctic are just a smoke screen, I believe.

Or the presence of British, French and Dutch islands miles off the coast of independent states in the Carribean? How about France having the most amount of time zones, even larger than Russia because they have territories thousands of miles away from their country in the Pacific? Russia's claim to the Arctic is not that extreme. Russia has numerous archipelagic and island chains there. And if we go by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas (UNCLOS), all states have the rights to claim the seabed and waters of a certain region if that specific region is part of that country's continental shelf. This means that there are provisions where Russia could pursue it's claims even through legal methods and not just physical explorations. Of course, in that case Canada and Denmark can claim the same territory as part of their Continental shelf, hence it could be solved by an arbitrary seating of the UNCLOS. Russia is an active member of UNCLOS as in the past, they have sought to expand their EEZ in the Sea of Okhotsk in the Russian Far East and they successfully persuaded the UNCLOS body to grant Russia authority over a body of water called "The Peanut Hole". Hence, there is really nothing too far fetched about Russia's claim and Russia has not shied away from using international maritime laws to press for it's claims.

The map at 5:40 is very wrong. Ireland and Moldova are not members of NATO and likely will never join. Since their the founding of their respective countries have both maintained a position of neutrality, Ireland in fact being infamous for it. Ireland was the only British dominion to stay neutral in WW2. Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Austria were all neutral during the Cold War, which is why it's so significant that Sweden and Finland felt that they had to make a joint application.
Russia is aggressively developing its territories. This is outrageous. England's behavior in relation to its overseas territories is completely the opposite.
It's funny because Russia used to be way smaller back in the days of Kievan Rus until they decided to literally colonialize as much of Asia as they just could. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Russia has by far the largest human presence of any kind in the arctic. There are about 2 million people living north of the arctic circle in Russia, and about 200,000 living north of the arctic circle in the rest of the world.
Population does not matter . It's about distance from your shoreline like every other water claim on earth .

@@guzelataroach4450 it's not just India that's facing the Indian Ocean you know.... Are you aware that the ICJ has demanded for the US and UK to leave and return Diego Garcia and the British Indian Ocean Territories to the Mauritius but the US and UK conveniently ignores the ruling? Or the presence of British, French and Dutch islands miles off the coast of independent states in the Carribean? How about France having the most amount of time zones, even larger than Russia because they have territories thousands of miles away from their country in the Pacific? Russia's claim to the Arctic is not that extreme. Russia has numerous archipelagic and island chains there. And if we go by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas (UNCLOS), all states have the rights to claim the seabed and waters of a certain region if that specific region is part of that country's continental shelf. This means that there are provisions where Russia could pursue it's claims even through legal methods and not just physical explorations. Of course, in that case Canada and Denmark can claim the same territory as part of their Continental shelf, hence it could be solved by an arbitrary seating of the UNCLOS. Russia is an active member of UNCLOS as in the past, they have sought to expand their EEZ in the Sea of Okhotsk in the Russian Far East and they successfully persuaded the UNCLOS body to grant Russia authority over a body of water called "The Peanut Hole". Hence, there is really nothing too far fetched about Russia's claim and Russia has not shied away from using international maritime laws to press for it's claims.

They can do whatever they want but what confuses me is why they're always wanting more land. Most of the land they have isn't inhibited and there are lots of oil and gas reserves in the areas.

Since their the founding of their respective countries have both maintained a position of neutrality, Ireland in fact being infamous for it.
Ireland was the only British dominion to stay neutral in WW2.
Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Austria were all neutral during the Cold War, which is why it's so significant that Sweden and Finland felt that they had to make a joint application.
