Northern Sea Route

 
The economic forecast for Russia and its allies is looking rosier every day. The Biden administration's sanctions against Russia that were mirrored by the Western bloc have achieved nothing except weaken the United States and Europe and make life for difficult for ordinary people with boosts to heating bills etc. A major part of this boom is the development of the Northern Sea Route. This involves sailing the coastal seas of the Arctic Ocean north of Siberia between the Far East and Europe. It is analogous to the Northwest Passage through the islands of Canada. Climate change has caused the Arctic ice cap to thin and shrink in recent decades. This means that during the summer months large areas of the northern seas are navigable, with the help of icebreakers. Russia has been on an icebreaker building spree; many being nuclear powered and therefore able to deploy autonomously for long continuous periods. Russia can now easily exchange goods with its fellow BRICS nations. The Northern Sea Route is considerably shorter than the conventional lanes which link East and West through the Indian Ocean, Suez Canal and Mediterranean. It is also free of piracy, and the political and social obstacles which have recently seen missile attacks on ships in the Red Sea. Not to mention unexpected shipwrecks in the canal itself, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2021/03/suez-shipwreck.html. The Suez Canal also charges an expensive toll and sometimes queues of ships form at the entrances on both sides. This has caused some lines to skip Suez altogether and sail around the entire continent of Africa which makes their voyage even longer.

The Northern Sea Route is a wonderful development for the coalition of nations currently standing up to the globalists.
