Need help; brain is foggy!

Trying to confirm the outcome of this move; sorry if this is a simple
one -- it's been a long day!

Russia:
Fleet St. Pete (NC) -> Norway
Army Sweden Supports (above)
Army Livonia -> St. Pete

England
Fleet Norway -> St. Pete
F Barents Supports (above)

My hunch tells me that Russia dislodges Norway, but I'm uncertain.

Thank you for your help!

Its a standoff. StPete attacks Norway with a force of 2 and Norway attacks
StPete with a force of 2. Both units stay where they are.

F STP attacks NWY with power 2.
F NWY attacks STP with power 2.
--> Neither has the power to overpower the other. Bounce.

A LVN attacks STP *separately* with power 1. As Russia owns both LVN and STP,
nothing happens.
--> This is one big standoff.

I think. Playing judge all the time will make you rusty.

So St.P is moving to Norway with one support, and Norway is moving to
St.P with one support. That's a stand-off.

I wonder why it tells you this?

Thanks for the replies!

I ruled it as a standoff last night, not quite sure if it was right at
the time, but when I woke up and looked at it today it seemed like an
obvious standoff; thanks for confirming this!

Yeah I don't know. When I looked at it the next morning it made
perfect sense it was a standoff. At the time it was after a very long
day. The scenario was actually a tad more complicated with
neighboring units; it wasn't until I broke it all down to simple moves
that it made sense.
