00:16routes open despite Western sanctions.

00:32and even Beijing.
00:33The U.S. is ramping up military presence.
00:36China wants control over trade and Russia.
00:38Well, it's pushing forward with plans to dominate the northern sea route, making sure its economy
00:43stays afloat.
00:45But is the Arctic really the future of global shipping or just an expensive dream?
00:50Some experts say the risks outweigh the rewards.
00:53One thing's for sure, this frozen frontier is heating up.
