Canadian Imperialism. :D

Anyway, the North Pole has recently been cropping up quite a bit in the media, what with several nations claiming rights to it and Russia dropping its land-breaking flag and whatnot. Some people are saying this could only escalate the deterioration of the fragile Russia-West relations and lead to what would be a quite literal second Cold War.

So, I was just wondering what the thoughts were on who is the rightful 'owner' of the Arctic. Personally, I feel that it should remain a neutral territory in the world, with no one country rightfully being able to assert that it belongs to them. Plus, the way we're going, it won't be there much longer, will it?

Why should it belong to anyone if no one created it?
My answer is that it shouldn't. Regardless if a nation's paying tons of money to hold it captive, or because it's simply in another nation's region.

The Arctic should remain in a neutral state.
No one should claim it. But occupying it is another story.

Lmao. You're right, but still.

How interesting would it be if Russia claimed the Arctic region and called it "New Russia"?
But then again, this happens all the time.
