Russia plans to hold military exercises in Arctic

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jQ2wofspV_VxTDr_c2ZI92Wj5nGAD91GGURG0

MOSCOW (AP) — A senior Russian general says Russia will conduct military exercises in the Arctic to uphold the country's claim to the region's vast natural resources.
Gen. Vladimir Shamanov, in charge of military training at Russia's Defense Ministry, also said planning for the exercises began after several nations disputed Russia's Arctic claims.
"Modern wars are won or lost long before they start," Shamanov told the military daily Krasnaya Zvezda in an interview published Tuesday.
He noted that 5,000 U.S. troops were involved in the Northern Edge military exercise in Alaska last month.
Canada and Denmark have also been involved in the race to claim the area's extensive oil and other resources.
Russia last August sent two mini-submarines to plant a Russian flag on the seabed under the North Pole, staking its claim on an underwater mountain range that is believed to contain huge oil and gas reserves.
A U.S. study suggests the area may contain as much as 25 percent of the world's undiscovered oil and gas.
