Hello. "Russian's unprovoked aggression in Ukraine". I like your channel but put your opinions and opinions of your mainstream media aside if that's possible. Every coin has two sides... I'm not on anyone's side since war is bad for everyone except for certain companies. So with all that in mind, keep politics out if.
Good point! I have some thoughts about it. Control of the sea trade routes was the basis of power for the most of Western European countries for centuries, it is now true for USA aswell. Of course they become nervous when they look at Russian Northern Sea Route project. Same way they are nervous when they look at Chinese New Silk Road, also Russian and Chinese projects of railways through whole Eurasia. Especially when they understood how easily their dominance can be broken by guys like Huthis. The European empires have spent a lot of effort to prevent Russia's access to the "big water". It seems that their elites are obsessed with Mackinder's works on the Eurasian Heartland, Rimland, etc. And this nervousness is transmitted to their populations by Western elites through propaganda in the media.

Russia has great potential. That's why someone (you know who!) has been always trying to exhaust Russia as much as possble. The Ukraine war is an example.
In addition, Russia is upgrading its constellation of satellites for monitoring and communications in high latitudes. Even the new orbital station will be positioned so that its orbit crosses high latitudes.

Congrats to Russia. Russia is the country where it has the most icebreakers. The Ice Road is a way to bring goods to Europe. But also the Silk Road, where China shipped goods to Europe by rail. After all, trade with China has been carried out for years. With the Ice Silk Road, it has two routes to bring goods to Europe and all in a very short time. Unfortunately, Washington has not yet jumped over its own shadow and worked with Russia to make a trade route by air and land. Russia is not an enemy, but America has created an enemy for itself and Russia had to keep its head down.But in the end, the US will lose and for sure. For the future, there is only one multipolar world. Those who do not participate like the US and EU will perish. The downfall of the EU and the USA is certain if they do not jump over their own shadow. Putin is a leader of such a one. One can only dream of the US and EU.
Great video, until you said "Russia's unprovoked aggression in Ukraine"... Come on... As if this was the first attempt to invade Russia via the ukrainian route. Adolf took the same route in Barbarossa. But this time, Putin acted preemptively before NATO could go any further. And by the way, NATO's logo is suspiciously similar.
@lisaroberts8556 no it doesn't because America doesn't have nearly enough icebreakers to defend Greenland once the annex it but Russia does! Buy or invading Greenland is useless if you don't have the icebreakers and infrastructure! Americans would just be stuck in the ice and wait for Russia to respond and rescue them! Russia and China will dominate this region simply because they are the only ones that have a big enough fleet of nuclear icebreakers! Without a big enough fleet of icebreakers America even if it annexes both Canada and Greenland would be a sitting duck in the ice! Believe me it all been though through before by people much smarter than you and me! Trump doesn't know what he's talking about because he is a populist!
Using a standard Mercator projection map to depict Russia may be inaccurate due to significant distortion of its area, potentially leading to misinterpretations. Perhaps an azimuthal or conic projection would minimize distortion and offer a more accurate representation.
So the project is possible because temperature is rising...but due to freezing temperatures it's behind schedule...but the ice can't warm to much or it doesn't work as foundation...and I'm just at 3/4 of the video

At 2'40", when you say that the Northern sea route is a much shorter link than the Suez Canal, you should show it on a 3D globe, because on a Mercator 2D map, the Northern sea route definitely seems longer.
Russia is investing $300 billion in Arctic infrastructure to create the Arctic Silk Road, a faster trade route between Europe and Asia. Projects include oil and gas developments, nuclear-powered icebreakers, and ports, aiming to exploit resources and control future Arctic shipping.

@MegaBuildsYT Using the Mercator projection was a terrible decision, next time use the correct one, or at least a globe to show the distance difference. In the Mercator projection the sizes are so distorted that the length of the routes are completely inverted, the north route looks more than double the length of the south one.
@@litchips Russia is selling record amounts of oil, and moving it themselves as the West refuses insurance for ships carrying Russian products. Obviously Russia has a fleet to move their products, you're just coping boy.

could you do the soviet megaproject of the northern river reversal. to use nukes, people whatever to dig canals to divert some of siberia's rivers to the aral sea?
Russia currently has the largest fleet of icebreakers in the Arctic. Its lead over others, however, is somewhat deceptive as most are small and devoted to clearing ice from harbors rather than keeping the Northern Sea Route open. Dream U S, dream😂
WHO'S COUNTING ICEBREAKER-TYPE TUGS? Count the river icebreakers. We are talking about large icebreakers, including nuclear-powered icebreakers, of which Russia already has four and a fifth nuclear-powered gas carrier. In the states, for example, there are only two small icebreakers of the Coast Guard, and one of them burned down and is unlikely to be repaired, as both are old.))) He who laughs last laughs.
2:40 I don't get it. It is clear from your map that the Northern Sea route is quite longer, not shorter, than the south route via the Suez Canal. Or, at least, that is the case when looking at a flat/2D map with Shanghai as the starting point. The Suez Canal route is close to the equator, where the Earth is bulkier. But would that be enough for a full _2 saved weeks_ of traveling via the Northern route? I can see how a ship traveling from Alaska or the easternmost Russia to Rotterdam would greatly benefit via the Northern route. From there the distance is clearly shorter than via Suez. However Shanghai is too far south for a ship to benefit by sailing north. Even accounting for the bulkier Earth in the south it is clear Shanghai - Rotterdam is much closer via Suez. Yet Anchorage - Rotterdam would be ideal via the North.
3:20 "Russia is perfectly placed to develop arctic shipping". No sir, it's the other way around. Arctic shipping is perfectly placed to be developed by Russia, and besides it's not the only northern sea route, it's just the most explored.
If this civilization goes carbon neutral the Arctic is going to refreeze to the same levels it did decades ago. The gas and oil is important as it gives insentive to stay in the arctic and even settle it, but there are other things needed to be done 1. Baltic/White Sea Canal 2. They should continue building the state of the art highway to Murmansk and then threw to Arkangel with high-speed rail, power, and communications in the corridor. And they should work on raising the population of both of the Arctic Cities to be as large as Murmansk was at its height. Once that is done a corridor just as complete can be built from Moscow to Arkangel. This would give reason to build corridors along the Arctic coast and build the other towns and cities on the Arctic coast larger. That's what I've been waiting to hear. Plans for Tiksi and other Arctic settlements that have been all but abandoned.
you put too much importance on human impact on the environment. Most of the warming / cooling has nothing to do wit humans and everything to do with the Earth's natural cycles.
no need to invest $Bs, as this is about trade between E. Asia & Europe, the NW Passage is more remote, with thicker ice & narrow shallow straits. N/C. Americas already have many ports on its Atlantic & Pacific sides with rail/road network connecting them, + the Panama Canal.
@@Steven-k8t you misunderstand.. America could if it needed them.. the fact Russia is the only country that has them is because theyre the only country that needs them.. and if Russia is being ostracized then why not find a 3rd route using the same principles but in friendly waters..
More likely its they are using a Mercator projection map, which makes Russia (or well, land nearer to the poles) stupidly larger than they realistically are. Like Greenland, which such maps always show as this North America sized island.

I am Russian. This Northern route will have potential only if EU will be looking for closer relationship with Russia. This will not happen with current regime in Russia. Until then Artic route will be just enough bottomless pit for our tax payers money.
@@MrOsetian why? If you want people from other countries to use this route, you need to have strong relations and trust. "Trustworthy" is not our strong characteristics lately.
Unprovoked comment. I watched it for the sake of skrolling a beautiful pictures and could have missed something. However, not for the sake of discussion, just interesting points in my opinion. It is often said that Russian requirements to environmental standards in the Arctic serve to consolidate Russian primacy there. Because Russians are naturally evil. But in fact, the Arctic nature is actually extremely vulnerable, and strict environmental requirements (this may include waste disposal and even road construction) have existed since Soviet times. Polar enviroment vulnerability a really unobvious thing, not just a degen green agenda. The second problem for Russia is. Well it interesting again. The Northern Sea Route is being created anew from Soviet (Dark Technology Era). that part of the Soviet-era infrastructure was lost in the 90s - 10th years. Entire port towns especially in the "non-gas-oil" part of the Arctic were practically abandoned (Dixon, Tiksi, Igarka, Pevek.. - well Pevek is ok). There are very few people left. Shops, sports complexes, schools, cinemas - there is nothing left. And how to populate them again is unclear. Perhaps these river-sea ports are no longer needed, I don't know.
The moment you sowed yourself at the video i change it ! And obviously it was gonna be an interesting one but you showed yourself ... Unfortunately...😕
I wasted 5 years of my prime in a freezing town on lake superior the only way I was finally able to get off probation for being a drunk trouble maker was to threaten to move to the Wisconsin side of Chicagoland.
Suez Canal route is 21,600 km and it takes about 48-50 days of travel plus up to 5 days delays for 3 choke-pints on the route from Shanghai to Amsterdam. Northern Sea Route is 12,600 km and it takes around 35 days of travel on the same destinations when ice-free or escorted by icebreakers and there is no choke-pints, using this route with same destinations a mid-sized cargo ship carrying 10-12K 20-foot containers can save between $800K up $1.2 mil
doesn't matter on the names. the idea itself is stupid. we are trying to preserve the ice and the dolts want to break it up. Who cares where or what it's called it's still terrible.i called it arctic too but doesn't mean the point is wrong.
This Northern ice route is needed exactly for the reason to prevent any situations on the tankers. Military bases and national control over the sea route would keep western pirates at bay who do holes in tankers.
Shipping is still much cheaper. It may take only a week to get from Moscow to Vladivostok but that route is congested to a degree that there are ongoing works to alleviate bottlenecks by doubling tracks, tunnels and bridges and electrifying remaining segments of track that has not been electrified. Currently container traffic from east to west along the railway gets delayed regularly as there are not enough opportunities to move then on, ie. there is often a backlog. So, once the railways are fully sorted out, this will simply be an option to use where air transport is too expensive and shipping too slow.
It is shorter actually. It looks longer on the map because the Mercator projection that makes all objects on the map near the poles much much larger than ones near the equator.
Oh please, Europe is hypocritical and are still buying Russian oil through third parties. By the way it was the west who started all the theft with Russian reserve and other Russian assets. And don't start with the Russia invaded nonsense, NATO countries have been invading left and right for the past 49 years. The US is occupying 1/3 of Syria now.
Can you please talk about the environmental ruins including deliberatly breaking up icebergs that already are melting too fast and is there nuclear waste from those nuclear powered ships?
Nobody is breaking icebergs, ships go where is enough depth and ice is thin, icebergs are literally mountains and it would be very slow to move through them) Russia is recycling its nuclear wastes and makes new fuel for reactors from it.
@iwantgoat 9ft is maximum that it can break, usually ice is between 0.5-1.5 meters, at least that what i have heard form videos about north root. And braked ice is freezing again quickly after ships have moved away because of low temperature.
Какие отходы? Ледоколы заходят в порт обслуживания где из них выгружают отработанное топливо и загружают новое. ОТработанное отправляется на комбинат где из него извлекают оставшийся уран 235 и всё повторяется заново.
What is the proportion of arctic land held by Finland and Norway? It is less than you can imagine. Whereas, Russia stretches over 53 percent of the Arctic Ocean coastline. That gives them the power to control the sea route. Russia does not need Canada in arctic for the trade route. Once, Russia finishes the construction of the trade and sea route, it is Western countries that will beg to use it.
Canada is not in the Northern sea route area, have you ever looked at a map you muppet? Alaska is closer to Russia than Canada ffs, and Alaska is not in Canada.

i mean sure, on the other hand how much intellect it takes to know that globe is round? :D everyone should know this,average or not
Africa is the second largest continent
This video is a flatearther's nightmare^^
I always learn something here and it's never boring.
you should have put distance by km of difference of suez canal and artic road,, because the map is wrong, and mention the difference
This is why Trump wants to Annex Greenland.
Altai Region Railway is much better for China Silk Road.
Just the Dual-Track Railroad.
17:38 "неспровоцированную агрессию" если вы хотите сделать видео с подобными заявлениями, ознакомьтесь с историей, а смотреть на западных клоунов и слышать эти слова это все равно что верить в "американские миротворческие походы на ближний восток и немного в Сербию".
И не услышал в видео, о том что из за искажения карты кажется что через россию плыть дольше, в америке огромная проблема у среднестатистических "граждан" с знанием карт, (не знаю кто у вас в стране сейчас мужчины, женщины, трансформеры смотря с чем вы себя идентифицируете) многие не поймут

I’ve free by 2040? Have you seen how many times they’ve been wrong?
If not free it should be thin enough to just have a group of paid ice breakers guiding a cargo convoy
Nice history lesson.
America needs H1-B visas for engineers.
Russia owns the artic since they have claim to most of the territory.
no to them it's never too ambvicious
Believe that!? Only their dream that can't be finished 😂
I am Russian. This Northern route will have potential only if EU will be looking for closer relationship with Russia. This will not happen with current regime in Russia. Until then Artic route will be just enough bottomless pit for our tax payers money.
Wrong argument.
@@MrOsetian why? If you want people from other countries to use this route, you need to have strong relations and trust. "Trustworthy" is not our strong characteristics lately.
Unprovoked comment. I watched it for the sake of skrolling a beautiful pictures and could have missed something. However, not for the sake of discussion, just interesting points in my opinion. It is often said that Russian requirements to environmental standards in the Arctic serve to consolidate Russian primacy there. Because Russians are naturally evil. But in fact, the Arctic nature is actually extremely vulnerable, and strict environmental requirements (this may include waste disposal and even road construction) have existed since Soviet times. Polar enviroment vulnerability a really unobvious thing, not just a degen green agenda. The second problem for Russia is. Well it interesting again. The Northern Sea Route is being created anew from Soviet (Dark Technology Era). that part of the Soviet-era infrastructure was lost in the 90s - 10th years. Entire port towns especially in the "non-gas-oil" part of the Arctic were practically abandoned (Dixon, Tiksi, Igarka, Pevek.. - well Pevek is ok). There are very few people left. Shops, sports complexes, schools, cinemas - there is nothing left. And how to populate them again is unclear. Perhaps these river-sea ports are no longer needed, I don't know.
The moment you sowed yourself at the video i change it ! And obviously it was gonna be an interesting one but you showed yourself ... Unfortunately...😕
I wasted 5 years of my prime in a freezing town on lake superior the only way I was finally able to get off probation for being a drunk trouble maker was to threaten to move to the Wisconsin side of Chicagoland.
Wait what, what did you do? I am curious now :)
?
I'd rather be in Wisconsin than anywhere in the Chicagoland and that isn't even factoring in professional football
so it would be ~2 weeks on the artic but how much is through the canal suez? he doesn't say
He said save 2 weeks
Suez Canal route is 21,600 km and it takes about 48-50 days of travel plus up to 5 days delays for 3 choke-pints on the route from Shanghai to Amsterdam.
Northern Sea Route is 12,600 km and it takes around 35 days of travel on the same destinations when ice-free or escorted by icebreakers and there is no choke-pints, using this route with same destinations a mid-sized cargo ship carrying 10-12K 20-foot containers can save between $800K up $1.2 mil

A big project in Antarctica isn't a good idea.
this is the artic not antartica... anatrica is the south pole the artic is the north
doesn't matter on the names. the idea itself is stupid. we are trying to preserve the ice and the dolts want to break it up. Who cares where or what it's called it's still terrible.i called it arctic too but doesn't mean the point is wrong.
It's not in the antarctic (south pole) Russian in in the north
Early bird gets the worm 🪱
Nothing Russia does is a good idea😂
After words "unprovoked aggression" I removed my like.
GOD BLESS RUSSIA AND PUTIN..😂😂
The west should fall into line.
I hope they weld their icebreakers better than they do their oil tankers.
This Northern ice route is needed exactly for the reason to prevent any situations on the tankers. Military bases and national control over the sea route would keep western pirates at bay who do holes in tankers.
It is OK with the tankers. Until you put river-class tanker like "Volganeft" into the sea storm...
@ it was OK during 18 years till last 2-3 weeks
Why icebreakers and not direct train routes for example?
PERMAFROST.... Look it up, the ground is too unstable in Siberia...
Thus guy watched Polar Express too many times
Shipping is still much cheaper. It may take only a week to get from Moscow to Vladivostok but that route is congested to a degree that there are ongoing works to alleviate bottlenecks by doubling tracks, tunnels and bridges and electrifying remaining segments of track that has not been electrified. Currently container traffic from east to west along the railway gets delayed regularly as there are not enough opportunities to move then on, ie. there is often a backlog. So, once the railways are fully sorted out, this will simply be an option to use where air transport is too expensive and shipping too slow.
Так дешевле. К узловым портам построят железные дороги, а основную часть грузов будут перевозить на кораблях.
VINCI is a French company, so its name is pronounced "vanci".
Why should it be faster? It's obviously much longer!
Вас обманывает проекция, посмотрите на маршрут с северного полюса.
It is shorter actually. It looks longer on the map because the Mercator projection that makes all objects on the map near the poles much much larger than ones near the equator.
Yoooo...
За проукраинскую позицию ставлю дизлайк

God bless CHINA and RUSSIA in this regards

Too late for that, usa moving production to usa.
Didnt blackthorn passed the arctic through megallons pass and reached japan
Unprovoked attack in ukraine??? In what world is it unprovoked. Lol. Ah yes keep expanding nato closer and closer to my borders
No one in Europe is gonna rely on a Russian only trade route
Europe is dead
That's for sure!
Just like they're not importing ILLEGAL ALIENS 😂😂😂
Oh please, Europe is hypocritical and are still buying Russian oil through third parties. By the way it was the west who started all the theft with Russian reserve and other Russian assets. And don't start with the Russia invaded nonsense, NATO countries have been invading left and right for the past 49 years. The US is occupying 1/3 of Syria now.
Business always takes the cheapest route and so you would be wrong.
Can you please talk about the environmental ruins including deliberatly breaking up icebergs that already are melting too fast and is there nuclear waste from those nuclear powered ships?
Nobody is breaking icebergs, ships go where is enough depth and ice is thin, icebergs are literally mountains and it would be very slow to move through them) Russia is recycling its nuclear wastes and makes new fuel for reactors from it.
@iwantgoat 9ft is maximum that it can break, usually ice is between 0.5-1.5 meters, at least that what i have heard form videos about north root. And braked ice is freezing again quickly after ships have moved away because of low temperature.
Какие отходы? Ледоколы заходят в порт обслуживания где из них выгружают отработанное топливо и загружают новое. ОТработанное отправляется на комбинат где из него извлекают оставшийся уран 235 и всё повторяется заново.

With no consideration for Finland Norway, Canada Russia has no chance
What is the proportion of arctic land held by Finland and Norway? It is less than you can imagine. Whereas, Russia stretches over 53 percent of the Arctic Ocean coastline. That gives them the power to control the sea route. Russia does not need Canada in arctic for the trade route. Once, Russia finishes the construction of the trade and sea route, it is Western countries that will beg to use it.
Russia isn’t afraid of Finland Norway Canada.
Russia has more coast than them
Можете и дальше так думать, а вообще, посмотрите на глобус.
Canada might not like Russian ships in their yard wtf
@dieselbaby fool Canada doesn't need to lol USA best friends, North America 🤣
Canada is not in the Northern sea route area, have you ever looked at a map you muppet?
Alaska is closer to Russia than Canada ffs, and Alaska is not in Canada.
They will be splitting the artic Cold War style probably
@@daledenstedt6369nope. Unless Canada legit transform into 51st state, orange man would give a damn😂😂😂
I'm new to trading, and I've lost a good sum trying out strategies I found in online tutorials. I would sincerely appreciate any recommendations you have.
Russia can't even keep its ships afloat in Black Sea and the Mediterranean. Arctic Silk Road 😂
They don't close off ports in Russia with collapsing bridges like they do in the USA.
Why? Because we can.
