Go to where it's cool in Poland!
The Central Europe Arctic Container Fast Shipping Route officially opened today. The "Istanbul Bridge" ship departed from Ningbo Zhoushan Port, passing through the Arctic route to the UK, taking about 18 days. This route connects major domestic ports with multiple large ports in Europe, greatly shortening the voyage.
Since September 12, Poland has closed all border crossings with Belarus, and it has not resumed traffic yet, causing a lot of goods from China to Europe to be affected. Active communication hasn't helped much, even after Foreign Minister Wang's visit, Poland still pretended to comply but didn't really do anything.
Now, the opening of the Arctic route not only provides another option but also avoids the political factors of Poland's unfriendly actions.
Because of this move by Poland, the Arctic route now seems even more appealing.
The most important thing is that Poland itself has lost 600 million to 900 million euros in income per year, and this is just the transit fee income.
