Moscow: Northern Passage Safer and Faster
Russia affirms that the Northern Sea Route for cargo transportation is safe and faster than the Suez Canal, noting that there are no pirates in the region and that freight transit from Asia to Europe takes approximately half the time compared to traditional routes. The Russian ambassador also warned of increased military spending by Canada in the Arctic, which could lead to an arms race and turn the area into a battleground for military competition. The volume of transport through the Northern Passage is projected to reach 37 million tons in 2025, a tenfold increase over ten years, and the route is now fully controlled by Russia.
