Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
Russia has renewed its claims to 1.2 million sq km (463,000 sq miles) of the Arctic shelf and is petitioning the United Nations to recognise its claim. All other countries bordering the Arctic – Norway, Denmark, Canada and the US – reject Moscow’s claim, they are all trying to assert jurisdiction over parts of the Arctic, which is believed to hold massive undiscovered resources of oil and gas.
