Seas North of Russia

There are several main seas that are north of the largest country on Earth, RUSSIA. They are all part of the Arctic Ocean, a water body straddling the northern latitudes above Europe, Greenland, Alaska, and Canada. The Barents Sea is north of Western Russia and north of the countries Finland and Norway. The East Siberian Sea is located north of Eastern Russia; also, it is east of the Laptev Sea and multiple islands including Kotelny (Kotel'nyy) and Novaya Sibir. Lastly, Kara Sea is east of the Barents Sea and east of Novaya Zemlya, a large island.
