A big tunnel project between Russia and the USA is getting attention again. President Trump said he is interested in building this tunnel under the Bering Strait. Russian officials think they can finish it in less than eight years.
They want to call it the 'Putin-Trump Tunnel'. The tunnel would be about 82 kilometers long at the narrowest part of the water. This idea is not new - people have talked about connecting Russia and America since the 1800s.
The project would be very expensive, costing about 35 billion dollars. It would need three tunnels for trains, cars, and equipment. Building it would be difficult because of cold weather and frozen ground.
Some experts think it could help improve relations between the two countries, but others worry it costs too much money compared to using ships.
