Putin issues a chilling warning to the West as Russia flexes military might—and invites global investors. What’s really happening in the race for the High North?

Seems like Russia has the tools to take on the Arctic – they have a fleet of nuclear icebreakers, and towable nuclear powerplants. The icebreakers have been getting built since the 70s – so that’s a specialized tech stack that others would have to catch up with. And then you’d have to have the infrastructure to build the damn things, no small feat. Plus add specific institutional knowledge on how to use them and deploy them.
I think that countries that want to take on Russia in this plane have a long uphill climb.

Scam investments proposed by Russia. I do not for a second believe that arctic exploration will yield commercially viable resources. Africa, SEA India have little reason to buy from Russia when they can get it from neighbouring or nearby countries.
