«People who go to the North, to the Arctic with a glint in their eyes, with the energy of youth, with optimism, with a culture of optimism, they are certainly more successful than their peers who stay. Because career opportunities in the North, in the Arctic, are many times greater. This was the case in Soviet times, and it remains the case today».
Alexander Pelyasov,
Director General, Regional Consulting Institute, Doctor of Geography, Professor at Lomonosov Moscow State University
