00:08a zone known for its extreme meteorological conditions, its glacial temperatures and its forts currents.
00:13These conditions make the engineering and construction extremely difficult,
00:16especially because of the presence of glass floating and the risk seismic in the region.
00:21Second, the cost of a such project would be astronomical,
00:24atteignant potentially hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:26This includes not only the construction of the pont itself, but also the development of the road
00:31necessary necessary for the two sides to be related to the transports existent,
00:34often through isolated and in-hospital areas.
00:37Third, the environmental impact would be considerable.
00:40The region would be fragile and sensitive species could be gravely affected by the construction
00:45and the increase of human traffic traffic.
00:47Finally, the political and political issues are significant.
00:51The relations between the United States and Russia are often tend to,
00:53which complicates the cooperation on a such a degree.
00:56The current conflict and the economic sanctions make the collaboration even more improbable.
