Abstract
As a result of climate change, the Northern Sea Route could become a profitable link between the Atlantic and the Pacific. Russia, which already began plans to develop the Arctic region during tsarist times, anticipates an increase in transit traffic and goods exports. The expansion of the infrastructure for the use of the sea route and for extracting raw materials is a key project in Russia's Arctic strategy. At the same time, the Arctic Ocean acts as a projection screen for Moscow's claims to power in partnership with China.
