The territory of the Russian Federation may increase by 1,2 million square meters. kilometers

After conducting a series of additional studies, Russia intends to submit an updated application for expanding its borders in the Arctic. In the case of a positive decision, the country's territory in the Arctic Ocean will increase by 1,2 million square meters. km, newspaper reports NEWS with reference to tass.

The territory of the Russian Federation may increase by 1,2 million square meters. kilometers


It is reported that in the natural "pantries" located in this area of ​​the territory, about 5 billion tons of standard fuel is stored.

The change of borders, according to the Minister of Natural Resources Sergey Donskoy, "will expand the Russian springboard to ensure the geopolitical interests of the country in the Arctic by establishing jurisdiction and control over the activity on the seabed and covering waters."

Recently, members of a high-latitude expedition arrived in St. Petersburg aboard the Akademik Fyodorov, who successfully completed the entire volume of geophysical research. The results of the work will serve as a justification for the Russian application for the change of the borders of the continental shelf.

For the first time such an application was filed in 2001, but it was then rejected, citing insufficient data. According to Donskoy, new information obtained during the expedition will change the situation.

            It is clear that they have no such desire, but applications have already been submitted and have been approved. Last recently.
            "After the enclave in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk was recognized as a constituent part of the continental shelf, 52.000 km2 were added to the territory of Russia. The application of the Russian Federation for the annexation of this zone was approved by a specialized subcommittee at the UN, which recognized that part of the shelf belongs to the water area of ​​the Sea of ​​Okhotsk."

          Today in Canada there was a rally of the Congress of Ukrainian Nationalists. The demand is not to give Russia the Arctic, but to divide it between Canada, the United States, Norway and Greenland. Like, such wealth for the "civilized world" must be transferred under the control of the "world community"

    Well, if this time too they will find a bunch of reasons to reject the application - then without consent, slowly and correctly track the territory, set up scientific stations and, of course, military units to protect them from aggressive environments.

    With such success, one can say about Antarctica, because ours have also opened it, but we don’t need someone else’s land, but we won’t give up our shred either, although recently, thanks to the efforts of a boy with an iPhone, some territories were given to neighbors.

    And now, do not go to the grandmother to guess, they will reject ... they will find a lot of reasons and inconsistencies ... if such a tidbit of Russia voluntarily gives up?

    For this reason, it is necessary to "pile up", pile up and pile up these territories, "mark" their territories - open any points - that of the armed forces, that of scientific and weather stations. Well, and accordingly, gradually deploy the Arctic group ...
