Oh, the evil Russians. How dare they use what they have to advance their own interests...
And we dont have the right to defend ours?
Again, as Subman said there - just as long as you don't get overly muscular about it. From the Russian perspective, they're "defending" interests too.

In fairness, I'm not one bit fond of Russia's overtures in the Arctic. Way to destabilize things, Tzar Putin.
