NATO fears Russia will seize control of the Northern Sea Route

Russia during 2-3 years can get full control over the Northern Sea Route, it is constantly increasing its presence in the Arctic, the United States does not have time for it, reports TASS Statement by General Curtis Scaparrotti, Commander-in-Chief of NATO Combined Armed Forces in Europe.

Most of this is restored old bases, from about seven to nine, in particular, those located at the beginning and at the end of the Northern Sea Route. And these are key places. So we are closely following this in the context of the militarization of the Arctic,

said Scaparrotti at the Senate hearing.

They (the Russian military) declare their intention to ensure the protection and security of economic well-being in the Arctic, the general added.

However, “based on what they place there, for some time, maybe two or three years, they will have the opportunity to control the Northern Sea Route if they want,” he noted.

On the question of whether the forces of the two countries are equal in the Arctic today, Scaparrotti replied:

We are lagging behind.

[Thrall]

Correctly fear. Since the days of Papanin, in addition to the USSR and Russia, only German submarines were present there for some time.

[Brylevsky]

Yes. And the German raiders.

[Shurik70]

It is strange that they are not afraid that Russia will seize control of the Moscow region. There are generally Russian troops dofig, and without a UN mandate

[Going]

The NSR always belonged to Russia, period.

[210ox]

That's it. And right up to the North Pole .. Already ours ..

What political naivety ?!
Thanks to the large-scale European presence, Siberia could eventually turn into a pan-Eurasian heritage, the use of which would occur on a multilateral basis,

This “common Eurasian” property would end in nothing more than a demand from the West for Russia to get the Russians and Russia away somewhere in the planetary sense!
For some reason, for example, it doesn’t occur to anyone to hint at the same United States about the “global” northern route around Alaska as a global asset!

[jjj]

So Vladimirovich told them last week that if Russia does not exist in the world, then why such a world is needed at all. How many people in the West simultaneously fell into a stupor

Excuse me, what are they provocateurs? They only help, they want to support the Russian Federation for a small percentage, some 70-80 percent. from the entire turnover, but the right to property, so for 100 years. They are peaceful, exclusively democrats ...

[Hey]

Correctly, still before my eyes, are maps of the USSR with borders to the very north pole.

[seti]

Little does it belong to us. Like the fact that we control it. Without merchant ships he is dead. Yes, our ships go along it, but they are ridiculously small. And our ports / bases are relatively few there and they are very small and underdeveloped.
We have it but still need to use it to the fullest. This is of course a matter of time, but now you need to attract all potential customers. Of course, for many reasons, it will not be when it will not be as attractive as the South Way, but we need to increase our piece.

yeah such as Murmansk for example.

[seti]

Which one you are smart. Just forgot to write that Murmansk is finite NSR port that starts in Shanghai. Do we also have such cities on the NSR?
The answer is obvious.

[Barmal]

like Vizbor’s song: .. "Smiling at the picture, A lady in the ice travels with us: New Igarka, Madame, Los Dudinka, Tiksi Foreign Village."

[annodomene]

Arkhangelsk, for example. The White Sea is inland.

[noct]

little agree, but who said that they will appear at the click of a finger? and the ship sailing in the northern latitudes is completely different even from a similar one somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. and what do you think it makes sense to build up "maintaining the security of the QMS" without having plans to provide the QMS with a merchant fleet?

[Moore]

Well, if the late pan Zbyshek assured that:
Thanks to its large-scale European presence, Siberia could eventually turn into a pan-Eurasian heritage, the use of which would occur on a multilateral basis,
then your question doesn’t seem very impossible ...

[Monos]

"There never was such a thing, and here again ..." Wake up general, Russia has been controlling the Northern Sea Route for 90 for years.

And they don’t have to, they already consider the whole world their own.
Just sometimes, in some places there are "misunderstandings" with their "property"

but they, like small children, do not relent (and do not understand this) ...
roll on the floor and scream - mine (want)!

[Hammer]

The mattresses are great, they live on the principle that “mine is mine, and we will defeat yours now.”
And not that the Northern Sea Route pass in our exclusive economic zone ?! Near (and sometimes through) our territorial waters! Skip to the end ahr ... l or what? !!!

[Dembel77]

NATO fears Russia will seize control of the Northern Sea Route

And rightly so, that they fear. The Arctic, like Crimea, will be ours.

A miracle in the feathers, wake up, you spoil the air, our military has been controlling the Northern Sea Route for 90 years, it’s better to sleep on a cloud in your pants.

Sergei I have a suspicion that this body does not know where the Arctic and Russia are.

[assa67]

Vlad, I remind you that on the maps of the USSR, the border ran along the North Pole ... and Russia is the legal successor of the Union, so this time schizoid of NATO should rest ...

[KVU-NSVD]

Yeah, let the guys let us have no reason to go there ... Develop your northwest passage ... and forget about our Arctic, the train has already left for you ...

[In h]

Was NATO worried about the hell? And what they have to do with the Northern Sea Route .. it has always been controlled by Russia and passes in our waters. And even more so, the USA is not in business here .. although they are a plug to all holes ..

[wicked pinnochio]

they want to control all oil and gas fields and they fear

[CHARM]

Within 2-3 years, Russia can gain complete control over the Northern Sea Route, it is constantly increasing its presence in the Arctic, the United States is not keeping pace with it,

As they say, LATE THROW. The Russian Federation has the largest icebreaker fleet in the world. At the same time, the Arctic force grouping is equipped and equipped as a priority. What did the USA do in response? Decided to build in 10 years a couple of icebreakers?
Russia ALREADY controls the northern route. And with the equipment of the Northern Fleet, NATO ships will generally have nothing to catch in those parts.
And at the same time, we must already think about the Atlantic.

[Korax71]

The infrastructure is especially well-developed along the north of the sea. But if you want to go, you don’t count, because we have the largest icebreaker fleet, the current is "a little" unprofitable. And so the entire coast of the Arctic Ocean is thriving. Can you answer why there is practically no towns, villages and towns along the coast?

[CHARM]

Quote: Korax71

can then you answer why there are practically no villages, villages and towns along the coast?

Because nothing is produced, mined, and so on ... now they started to do it. And a man seeks where he lives better. You would not have lived in a dying village north only from patriotic motives, right?

[Loess]

And they also gaped at the Northern Sea Route? And do not choke?

[Zubr]

Already under control. Woke up late .. =))

[Hort]

some wildness, almost the entire SevMorPut along our terr. water passes, if my memory serves me.
Already insolent in the land

[jjj]

So much for territorial waters - 12 miles. But there is still the concept of inland waters. And if you bring the basis under the New Earth, the Land of Frans Joseph, then the reference line of territorial waters goes far to the pole. And it turns out that the Northern Sea Route passes mostly through the inland waters of Russia. Against this and gonosh. But if our bases are on the Arctic lands, then no adversary can stick their flag there

[andrewkor]

No, still here and there, if it was about Alaska, the Northwest Passage, it would be possible to understand, but the NSR is touching them sideways! Db!

[Russia]

Let them make their way north, the ice is thicker there.

[den3080]

The Northern Sea Route has always been Russian. No?
The only thing America can claim is its half of the Bering Strait.

[Alex-a832]

The brakes. The SevMorPut and ours was ours, and you’ll cut it off as if they didn’t want it.

[VALERIK_097]

They had Wishlist, but the infamous video of how a super submarine storms the ice in the North (with the comments of our helicopter pilots) slightly cooled their ardor.
Aren't the exacerbation again?

[Mountain shooter]

And what, there are Amer’s troops on our coast? Or the United States has icebreakers that can sail in these latitudes.

[Yulaevich]

Another voice in a pack of hollow dogs, according to the flocking instinct, who creep unreasonably and brainless towards Russia, it doesn’t matter what, it doesn’t matter what, the main thing is to bark in the same direction where the whole pack howls

[ALLxANDr]

Figase! It is strange that they are afraid of something there. This is our project, our Northern Way! It would be over idiocy if it was controlled by Europeans with Americans! It is clear that there are also countries there that border the Arctic. But not one of them can make the trade route! But to use it - there is a whole turn! America and Europe have their own trade routes that are not beneficial to us, but beneficial to them. And to control other people's trade routes, of course, anyone wants to)))))

[helmi8]

Quote: ALLxANDr

America and Europe have their own trade routes that are not beneficial to us, but beneficial to them.

They do not have such trade routes from Europe to the Far East. SMP is the shortest ...

[ALLxANDr]

Who argues! But if we were talking about Europe ...

Within 2-3 years, Russia can gain complete control over the Northern Sea Route, it is constantly increasing its presence in the Arctic, the United States is not keeping pace with it

But where does the United States? Nobody wants to sail to Alaska and through Alaska .. But the Europeans are not able to make the northern sea route outside the zone of influence of Russia, because say in international waters (there it’s just stupidly thicker ice).

[bsk_una]

In vain worry, Messrs. Americans. Already now you have a good constipation in this place, up to a twist (as you want, so understand). As one comedic hero used to say: do you still have to bring the keys to the apartment where the money is !? You have your own belt, dance there!

[Whisper]

The North Sea Route is defined by the legislation of the Russian Federation as “the historically developed national unified transport communication of Russia in the Arctic”.
It is very good that we control it, and not the US Navy.

This is a plus for our politicians !!! Could and miss! Well, ours know how to fuck ...

[Sergey-8848]

It is impossible to control it entirely. he passes by several countries. But!! - Most of it runs along our borders, so the “controlling stake” in the Volunteer-Nevolence NSR is located due to geographical features. And we can always reinforce these features with arguments (from other branches of natural sciences) ..

[Prisoner]

Our path means our control. Dry the pin!

[1536]

And you need to "capture". The Northern Sea Route is our transport artery; with its help, everything that is needed is delivered to the remote northern regions of our country. The Northern Sea Route belonged and will belong to Russia. Therefore, no one should meddle there. And whoever snoops around with his charter should get a snot. Otherwise, tomorrow they will go to Siberia.

[camo ridges]

They are completely fucked up there - this path goes through ours
territorial waters, what claims may be
NATO - of course, will get in the forehead if something sticks out
change. We have enough knives (daggers) for everyone, as
used to say the famous character from the "Meeting Place ..."

[Comrade Beria]

Most of this is restored old bases, from about seven to nine, in particular, those located at the beginning and at the end of the Northern Sea Route. And these are key places. So we are closely following this in the context of the militarization of the Arctic,

And the presence of Russian atomic icebreakers at the NSR is absolutely unacceptable.

In short, db. Go learn geography

[Reserve buildbat]

I didn’t understand something. Does this scaparotti worry that Russia will “seize control” of what belongs to it already? He had not yet had time to worry that Russia might “seize control,” say, of Sakhalin?

[Romanenko]

Wait a minute, the NSR is the internal territorial waters of the Russian Federation, the control of which, by default, belongs to their owner. There is no one who does not surpass the borzometer ???
But Mr. Scaparotti and his lads have nothing to do there !!!

[Clumsy]

And what does NATO have to do with the NSR ???

[bald]

And how did they want?!, - the control is and will be ours, from all sorts of parasites.

[Sewer krainiy]

I do not understand ... They were, are and will be ours !!!

Including Alaska. Well, holding a Labrador and Greenland-Iceland at gunpoint. Alaska is ours!

[Dormidont]

NATO degenerates and guess that the Northern Sea Route

[Vasilenko Vladimir]

NATO fears Russia will seize control of the Northern Sea Route

what the next will capture BAM, the Volga ?!

[Dart]

the question is, are the forces of the two countries equal in the Arctic today, Scaparrotti answered:
"We are behind."
You flatter yourself very much, General

[NF68]

The Northern Sea Route runs along the Russian coast and therefore the protection of these communications by Russia is more than justified.

[Sands Careers General]

NATO fears Russia will seize control of the Northern Sea Route

Those. take control of themselves?

[Wolka]

You’re not just falling behind the Yankees, you don’t even fall into the dust, and you won’t see the sea route like your own ass

[Metallurg_2]

But does the NSR not pass completely in the territorial waters of the Russian Federation?

[yasvet]

the state senate is overheated with fakes about the Russian Federation, and they don’t have enough knowledge of economic geography, and therefore, the general is loading this audience, and he himself knows whose cream is licking his lips)).

[LIP]

The Russian schoolchild has more intelligence than the NATO generals!

[Alex K]

no need to be afraid, this path is ours, and you have nothing to do there

[Neko75]

Let them control the Gulf of Mexico.

[Navy7981]

The general is absolutely right! That is what we want! And I believe! We will control not only the NSR.

[Disorder]

In fact, it is already under control, since for the most part it passes through the territorial waters of Russia.

[Vladimir K.]

I go nuts with them. The NSR along the northern border of Russia passes entirely in our territorial waters. You can, of course, sail even further north, but without the possibility of an emergency or planned stop at our ports, the risk of carriers increases greatly.

[Kent0001]

And what do Americans have to do with Our Northern Sea Route?

[Valery Saitov]

We are behind.)))
You are in big oppa because You don’t have so many icebreakers. And without them there’s nothing to do.

[Shaska]

And, to be honest - THERE ARE DANGEROUS? !!! This path through life belonged to Russia. The Americans there, as in other things and in Syria in general, do not x ... th !! ! Not a dream or a snout ... The Russians explored the northern path through life, the rest worked as hangovers ... The mattresses have already destroyed one continent, now all over the world like cockroaches ... It's time to show them a red pencil.

[Shaska]

Nooo !!! Well guys !!! I myself saw James Bond in the Arctic latitudes making a rustle !!! Yes, you what? !!! Did not look? This is shown on the telly !!! He piled such Russian there ... !!! So - twist, don't twist, the Northern Sea Route - this is the prerogative of America and England ... Well, there is Nezalezhnaya there (they pierce the ice there for life) ... In general, shut up and sit (until the US calls to take their cruisers out from the cursed ice)

[LIP]

And what right do star-whales have on the Northern Sea Route? Did they open it ?! Even Mikhailo Lomonosov in the 18th century wrote: - "Russian Colomb despising moody rock, they will lay a new path between the ice to the East." And the Navy guards the entrances to this path from the west, and the Pacific Fleet from the east. Let them go ...

[Natasha Chekanova]

Late, it all happened already.

[Tda tar]

"Take control" ... "Take" from whom? The SF never “lost” this “control”, while NATO did not have and will not foresee any offspring at the NSR. Cocks Anglo-Saxon language, damn it.
