Depending on the evolution of the global geopolitical situation, he will choose the safest route. For now, two options:
Option 1: NORTH route – 12,000 kms
Option 2: SOUTH route – 15,000 kms
West-East crossing of Europe, via Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Latvia; crossing of Russia from the Latvian border to Omsk, via Moscow; crossing the far east of Kazakhstan, before entering China, and 4,800 km to Shanghai!
A quick transfer to Istanbul (to bypass the excess kilometers), crossing Turkey and Georgia, followed by a “jump” over Azerbaijan, whose land borders are closed, crossing the Caspian Sea by ferry, crossing the countries in “tan” (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan), before 6,400 km in China to Shanghai!
