A chapter in Arctic Fever, 2022, pp 473-496 from Springer Abstract: Abstract The Russian government has recognized development of the Northern Sea Route (NSR)—the Arctic passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans—as a significant state priority, part of a broad state program on creating infrastructure that would connect Western and Eastern parts of the country. But NSR has also become a geo-political priority. In a world of growing global grivalries a Russia-controlled transportation trade route to China and other Asian markets that is beyond the control of the US Navy and is secure from possible sanctions or blockade represents an important strategic asset for Russia. This article seeks to review Russia’s strategy with regards to NSR and to analyze how the specific goals related to NSR may be achieved as a vital part of the country’s overall Arctic strategy. It details which projects will be key in achieving Russian corporate goals and how Russia’s overall strategy with regards to the NSR is set to develop.
