Russia has potential to make Northern Sea Route operational round the year — vice-premier


Russia has all the possibilities to make the Northern Sea Route operational round the year and in any season, Vice-Premier Dmitry Rogozin said on Monday.

"I believe Russia has big prospects and large advantages precisely through the Northern Sea Route," Rogozin said at a plenary session of the international forum on the Arctic.

"It is important that our structures and bodies responsible for the Northern Sea Route and the administration of the Northern Sea Route should be generators of ideas rather than bodies stating facts and they should elaborate proposals on creating those technologies that will help make the Northern Sea Route operational round the year and in any season," the vice-premier said.

"We have all technological possibilities for this," Rogozin said.
