Description
Summary:The aim of my thesis was to investigate the prospective use of the Northern Sea Route and which countries have the greatest interest in the area and why. In writing this thesis, I used only literary publications, thus conducting a qualitative study. In my present work, I concluded that shipping via the NSR will certainly become safer, faster, and cheaper in the future, but with the current capacity, awareness and technological level, and cost of the countries, the NSR is not an option in the near future.
