Rosatom has authorized seven Chinese vessels to sail to Europe via the Northern Sea Route (NSR) through the Arctic. The Chinese company Sea Legend Shipping plans to establish the first regular container service to Europe via the NSR, with vessels sailing weekly throughout the 2026 navigation season. This marks a shift from previous experimental or one-off shipments, with Rosatom CEO Alexei Likhachev describing it as a 'fully fledged regular service'. The Arctic route is seen as a potential alternative to traditional shipping routes amid instability in the Persian Gulf.
