China and India

Asian giants like China and India are permanent observer states of the Arctic Council and they are the ones who have a great interest in the region. The East Asian manufacturing giants – China, Japan and South Korea are some of the largest exporters of goods to Europe and North America. The shorter route through the Arctic region will help them to cut on cost. (Gao, 2018)

Recent research suggests that there is a direct link between the Arctic climate and Indian monsoon. The current pattern of change in the Arctic climate (especially the melting of Ice and higher average temperatures) drastically weakens the Indian monsoon (DNA Correspondent, 2015). It is India’s responsibility to take part in climate change mitigation and Arctic diplomacy since the massivethe globe to treat Arctic as a Global Commons for a safer and sustainable future.
