"The Arctic is currently experiencing rapid systemic change with multiple economic, social, political, and security implications that are still imprecisely understood. Whether this plays out among the states and parties concerned through international cooperation, or competition and possible conflict, is a vital and debated question."
"The Arctic Climate Change and Security Policy Conference", Kenneth S. Yalowitz, James F. Collins and Ross A. Virginia, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, December 2008
"It is ironic that both climate change, and the oil and gas that has given rise to climate change, threaten to embroil the Arctic Ocean and bordering States in disputes over sovereignty, access to resources, navigation and the protection of the environment."
"Sovereignty and Conflict in the Arctic Due to Climate Change: Climate Change and the Legal Status of the Arctic Ocean", Duncan E.J. Currie LL.B. (Hons.) LL.M., Globelaw, 5 August 2007
"Geopolitics and geo-economics are driving Moscow's latest moves. Geologists believe that a quarter of the world's oil and gas...may be located [in the Arctic]. The Arctic frontier also harbors precious ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as diamonds. At today's prices, these riches may be worth hundreds of billions of dollars."
