That’s true. It’s more of a political problem than a technical one, sharing control between Russia and Alaska. That Hormuz thing doesn’t inspire a lot of optimism for cooperation. How well will Russia play at all when the intention is to save Europe from debilitating cooling? Shipping arguments would be a distraction, but I’m sure they would be employed.
