“It [tunnel] would be wonderful if it were easy to drive between Russia and the United States, even into Alaska,” Rogers said.
Rogers also expressed hope that the project would be implemented.
In October, the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) and the Russian President's special representative for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries, Kirill Dmitriev, stated that the idea of a tunnel between Russia and Alaska is being discussed. He did not provide further details.
