The Kremlin has proposed the construction of a 70-mile undersea rail tunnel beneath the Bering Strait, linking Russia and Alaska. This project has been dubbed the "Putin-Trump Tunnel." Kirill Dmitriev, the Kremlin"s investment envoy, has suggested that Elon Musk"s Boring Company be involved in the construction of this tunnel.
This proposal marks a significant infrastructure initiative aimed at enhancing connectivity between the two regions. The idea of a tunnel connecting Russia and the United States has been discussed in various forms over the years, but this latest proposal has garnered attention due to its high-profile branding.
As previously reported, similar ambitious infrastructure projects have faced various challenges, including political, environmental, and financial considerations. The feasibility and potential impact of the proposed tunnel remain to be evaluated.
