US and Russian officials are looking into potential cooperation on Arctic trade routes and resources after high-level talks, as reported by Bloomberg.
The anonymous sources familiar with the discussions said that US administration views Arctic cooperation as a potential way to “drive a wedge” between Moscow and Beijing, Bloomberg cited one source as saying.
However, the source noted that the effort is unlikely to succeed due to the Russian-Chinese “no-limits” partnership.
Bloomberg’s report did not specify which Arctic projects were discussed at the Saudi Arabia talks held recently.
