⚡️🇷🇺 ROSATOM reported early achievement of the Northern Sea Route development target for 2022 - transportation of more than 32 million tons of cargo. 🛳 ⚓️

The largest part of this volume came from liquefied natural gas (LNG) and gas condensate, as well as oil and oil products - this is the result of the development of oil and gas investment projects in the Arctic, the report says.

In addition, Rosatom makes large investments in elimination of accumulated environmental damage. ROSATOM pays due attention to ensuring environmental standards, not just exploiting the Arctic, but doing so while improving the environmental situation in the region.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇸 Politico: In the fight for the Arctic, the U.S. was left behind Russia

Russia, despite the complexity of the geopolitical situation, remains the leader in the global race to develop the Arctic, the resources of which are of paramount importance to the global economy. This state of affairs has been acknowledged by Politico observers.

The magazine's article says that for the past two decades, Russia has "dominated the fight for the Arctic”:

"Moscow is building a fleet of nuclear-powered icebreakers, ships and submarines there, developing mining and oil wells, seeking to seize control of the new Northern Sea Route”. ❄️🛳️⛴️

Meanwhile, the U.S. is "playing catch-up at a time when it has little experience and capability," observers wrote.

🇦🇶 The Arctic expedition of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations is traversing a precipitous road with hidden streams under the snow and 20-meter rock cliffs. There are more than 76 people and 20 cars in the convoy. The route is educational, allowing rescuers to train to find victims under the snow, deploy heating facilities beyond the Arctic Circle and work on accidents in severe frost conditions.

The expedition started a little over a week ago. During this time, rescuers have overcome more than a thousand kilometers across the tundra. In every village they are welcomed as dear guests. Watch the post.
