hand, you will fmd representatives of different levels of Russian
authorities, presenting the possibilities offered by the route, and
emphasizing Russia's long experience in using and administrating
it. In between these two groups stand the researchers, presenting a
multi-faceted and hopefully balanced picture of the NSR and its
possibilities vs.
