Description
Summary:Abstract Currently, there are a number of major subcontinental and ocean projects on the continental territory of Eurasia and the oceanic area adjacent to it, among which are the Belt and Road Initiative and “Northeast Passage” and “Greater Eurasia” projects. The most actively implemented today, at least in the geopolitical and research contexts, is the Belt and Road megaproject, geographically tied to the Silk Road in its various versions. The Tea Route also falls into the zone of influence of the Silk Road. A common geographical feature of the countries of Greater Eurasia, geographically tied to these land transport corridors, is the unique ultra-continental position of their inner territories, which include a number of subjects of Russia, Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan.
