Russia and US discuss Arctic cooperation – Bloomberg

Russia and the US have discussed potential economic cooperation in the Arctic as part of recent bilateral contacts, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday, citing sources. The discussions come amid the budding rapprochement between the two nations following a high-level meeting in Saudi Arabia last week.

According to the outlet, discussions have focused on joint projects in natural resource exploration, trade routes, and energy cooperation. A source told Bloomberg that Washington sees Arctic collaboration as a possible way to “drive a wedge” between Moscow and Beijing, its major economic rival. However, the source admitted that such an outcome is unlikely given the deep economic ties between Russia and China.
