Putin Sends Arctic Warning To NATO

Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin has made it clear that he would be doing what he believes is necessary to protect the sovereignty of his nation as tension rise in the Arctic.

Speaking at the International Arctic Forum in Murmansk on Thursday, he warned that Russia would do its best to uphold its national interests and sovereignty in the region.

He said that NATO member states viewed the Arctic as a “bridgehead” for future conflicts and is actively training troops to operate in the far north.

RT reports: The number of Russian forces deployed in the Arctic is bound to grow to meet the growing challenges there, Putin said.

“We are, of course, concerned by the fact that NATO countries as a whole are more frequently designating the far north as a bridgehead for possible conflicts, practicing the use of troops in these conditions, including their new recruits from Finland and Sweden,” he declared.

Moscow has been “closely monitoring” the situation in the region, and has taken “an adequate response approach by increasing the combat capabilities of the armed forces and modernizing military infrastructure facilities,” the president explained.

“I would like to emphasize that Russia has never threatened anyone in the Arctic,” he said, adding that Russia will not tolerate any encroachments on its sovereignty and will “reliably protect” its national interests.

Maintaining “peace and stability” in the Arctic is the key to the long-term development of the region, in addition to “improvement of the quality of life of people and preservation of the unique natural environment,” Putin said.

“The stronger our positions are, the more significant the results will be,” he stressed.

Russia’s strong posture in the Arctic gives more opportunities to “launch global international projects” there with the participation of “friendly nations,” and potentially with Western states as well. “Should they, of course, show interest in working together, and I am sure that the time for such projects will definitely come,” the president stated.
