LOL… those nasty unpredictable EU nations might do anything – stay clear. Whereas, Russia is a stable force for good „rarely“ causing geopolitical turmoil or invading their sovereign neighbors (or something like that).

Impressive. Personally, I see Arctic routes changing global trade, but the environmental risks worry me.

It’s an impressive milestone for China but let’s not ignore the environmental cost. Exploiting the Arctic routes might save time now but it’ll only speed up the melting that made them possible in the first place

Does anyone have a map of the route they took? Would like to see if any polar bears have been harmed during the voyage.

With the ice cap melting there are no technical challenges, anyone else can do it, however if the traffic increases significantly it would further impact the ecosystem in that part of the planet. Of course money comes first planet who cares right, the executives of these companies don’t care about their children future.

It’s like they knew affordability was going to be an issue and now we have Temu and Aliexpress cutting out the middle man.

I wonder about the impact on those places that have made current routes part of their economic plan. South East Asia in general, but countries like Singapore, for which their port is a fundamental aspect of their economy, could fall very fast…
