Russia Calls Increased NATO Military Activity in the Arctic Worrying, Warns of 'Unintended Incidents' - TASS

Russia is worried about increased activity of NATO forces in the Arctic and sees risks of "unintended incidents" occurring in the region, TASS news agency cited Russian ambassador-at-large Nikolai Korchunov as saying on Sunday.

In March, Finland and Sweden, which are both considering joining the U.S.-led military NATO alliance, conducted combined NATO military drills. The exercise was long planned, but Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24 added intensity to the war game. Moscow describes its actions in Ukraine as a "special military operation".

"The recent increase in NATO's activity in the Arctic is a cause for concern. Another large-scale military exercise of the alliance was recently held in northern Norway. In our view, this does not contribute to the security of the region," Korchunov said.

According to Korchunov, such activity raises the risk of "unintended incidents", which, in addition to security risks, can also cause serious damage to the Arctic ecosystem.

He did not specify what type of incident he might be referring to.

You sound just like a STUPID Liberal....Anyone the Left/Socialists/Communists support...I OPPOSE!!!

We were lied to for a couple years by our politicians and press about Russian collusion.

We were lied to from our politicians and press about the integrity of our election results

We were lied to by our politicians and press about the Covid virus and the safety of vaccines versus the dangers of alternative medicine.

Why does anyone believe what our politicians and press are claiming is happening between Russia and Ukraine?

Based on how his “Special Operation” is being perceived and reported (rightly or wrongly, no matter the truth of the matter) the Russian military is now seen as incompetent, weak, and badly led by an officer corps being steadily reduced in numbers by Ukrainian asymmetric warfare. Purges in the top echelons of his intelligence and military structure is another bad look. Putin ought to be worried more about how his “friends” in Beijing are seeing things than anything Sweden and Finland might decide defensively. China is likely to be looking at things in a more opportunistic and offensive light. Some Russians have been longing for a new Stalin. They should try to recall how Josef’s pact with Hitler turned out following his debacle in Finland.

Notice that Mariupol along the coast was the only major Ukrainian city totally destroyed so far. Beside getting the Nazi battalions that are holed up there, it’s in the middle of the land bridge Russia wants to Crimea. So Putin wants any anti-Russians gone from there. If the Russians next move on to Odessa then you will know WW3 is on for sure.

” Russia Calls Increased NATO Military Activity in the Arctic Worrying, Warns of ‘Unintended Incidents’’

isn’t it funny how the Russian’s always spout out how the west and NATO in particular are always acting aggressively when they themselves are doing thing that are highly aggressive like actually bombing and killing people in other nations who want No part of their nation or their nations influence.

I wonder if Putin knows what kind of Hypocrite he really is?though I’m sure he could give a damned.

IIRC, that movie did not have a happy ending. Hence, its title.
