Slow progress on new routes

Article Abstract:

Russia initiated a united air traffic system in the latter part of the 1990s, a programme which was expected to be completed by 2005. Due to developments in world aviation, however, the programme was modified. The new developments include the requirements for trans-polar and trans- Russian route to connect North America and Southeast Asia. The modifications include the installation of a new air traffic management system.
