Russia is “fully ready” for a conflict with NATO in the Arctic, the country’s foreign minister warned.
“We see NATO stepping up drills related to possible crises in the Arctic,” Sergey Lavrov said, according to Russian state media, in comments for a documentary series that were first reported Friday.
“Our country is fully ready to defend its interests militarily, politically and from the standpoint of defense technologies," he added.
His comments mark the latest round of saber-rattling by the Kremlin, which has repeatedly… threatened … to … unleash … nuclear … war on NATO and its allies in recent years.
The Arctic is the northernmost point on Earth and includes territory belonging to eight nations: Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Canada, the United States, Iceland and Russia. All except Russia are NATO members.

To quote the kids on the playground: “You and what army?”
After the rousing success of their military action in Ukraine which was predicted to be concluded in a matter of weeks, more than 2 and a half years ago, I don’t see why they wouldn’t be eager to fight multiple opponents on multiple fronts. How could that possibly go wrong for them?
