Melting snow, increasing pressure
The melting ice in the Arctic is increasing the competition of new shipping lanes and the resources below the sea. China has declared itself a Near-Arctic Nation. Polar has introduced Silk Road project in 2018. The journey from Shanghai to German port is about 2,900 miles smaller than the Northern route from the Northern route. This provides direct economic benefit to China.
Just research or strategic move?
According to American analysts, it is not just research, but is a strategy to increase its presence in the sea and increase geopolitical effects. Every Chinese ship seen in Arctic is being closely monitored on the location, route and action, especially when the same area is going to be a platform of Trump-Putin Summit.
