What Has Russia Spooked? Russian Bases to Span Entire Arctic Border by End of 2014! (10-22-14) ~ https://youtube/watch?v=6L4o5CCLVT0&list=UUFjOi1ZpZVErr8EYxg8t1dQ Russia will have military control of the entirety of its 6,200 km Arctic coastal zone by the end of 2014, just a year after Moscow announced its ambitious plan to build military presence in the region, Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu has announced. “We have set quite a pace in our foray into the Arctic,” Shoigu said during a military council meeting in Moscow. “By the end of the year we will already deploy most of our units in the region – from Murmansk to Chukotka.” Moscow announced its intentions to create a special force grouping in the strategic region in December last year, with Vladimir Putin saying that Russia needs to activate “all the levers for the protection of its security and national interests” in the “promising region.” The undertaking, which Shoigu labeled “fundamental,” is now in full flow.
