Russia has reiterated its claim to Artic oil and gas deposits, saying that testing of samples gathered in an expedition has proven that a vast mountain range under the Arctic Ocean is part of Russia. Samples of earth taken by Russians who planted a flag on the seabed below the North Pole in August prove that the undersea ridge connects to Russia.
