Sorry, but you need to buy a map. Once you do, find Murmansk and
Vladivostok. Unless you maintain that the Atlantic and Pacific are
not part of "the worlds [sic] oceans" your comment above stands shown
as false.


Funny how to transit out of Vladivostok you have to pass through fairly
narrow straits not under the control of Russia.
One of which has a bit of bad karma when it comes to the Russian
Fleet...

Murmansk has a bit of a problem with year round access too.
