Chartered Institute of Export & International Trade director general, Marco Forgione, speaks to CGTN Europe about the new 'Ice Silk road' that runs through the arctic, linking the Chinese port of Ningbo with the UK port of Felixstowe.
The new route for international trade has been opened up as a result of melting sea ice, caused by climate change.
As global warming continues to reshape international trade, this shipping route could become a faster way of moving goods between East and West and avoids a number of key geopolitical chokepoints in the Middle East.
