Russia Tries to Claim Arctic Sea Shelf

Russian scientists hope to plunge to the seabed beneath the North Pole in the next few days in a miniature sub and plant a titanium capsule containing the Russian flag, symbolically claiming much of the Arctic Ocean floor for Moscow.


Never mind, it violates some treaties...oh wait...
