“…In practice, many continue to be ignored, though the stakes involved in the symbolic politics of Arctic territory have grown as resource extraction has become a growing possibility. Though all Arctic states continue to emphasise the absence of conventional military threats in the region and reaffirm their commitments to peaceful resolution of Arctic disputes, many have also securitised Arctic energy, with Canada, Norway, and Russia constructing Arctic resources as central to their national economic security interests (Beauchamp and Huebert 2008; Jensen and Skedsmo 2010; Jensen 2012). Thus, while there is little evidence the warming environment will directly result in interstate violence, the opening of the Arctic has led to a renewed emphasis on military activity, and the prospect of resource wealth has raised the stakes for states asserting and defending their Arctic sovereignty claims.…”

“…In this case, discourses and performative statements known as speech acts (Chilton and Schäffner 2002, p. 9) are drawn from policy documents and statements by Russian political actors, Russian analysts, and Russian media. This approach has already been applied to Russian Arctic policy (Jensen and Skedsmo 2010), climate change, and environmental security (Trombetta 2008), and has great relevance to the consideration of energy security, an area in which actors' perceptions of their own security depends upon the perceived intentions of other relevant actors. This is especially the case in a supplier-consumer relationship such as that between Russia and the EU.…”
