The Arctic: Current Challenges, Solutions, Future

A presentation of the collection of materials of the First scientific and practical interregional forum with international participation "The Arctic is our common home" was held at the Scientific Library of Petrozavodsk State University. 

The collection of scientific articles provides an assessment of the development prospects of the Arctic territory of Russia.

“I consider the Republic of Karelia to be a completely Arctic region, it is a geostrategic territory in the interests of the Russian Federation. Much depends on it in terms of national security of our country. Much depends on the development of economic ties and the North-South transport route. Karelia is part of the Northern Sea Route. This is the most important transit resource region,
