What state longitude is International Date line and Latitude of Arctic Circle?

The intersection of the Arctic Circle with the meridian of 180° longitude is a point
in the Chukotskiy Avtonomyy Okrug, the easternmost province of the Russian
Federation and the Siberian landmass.
That's exactly the reason that the International Dateline is shifted about 300
miles away from this meridian in that area, in order to fall in the sea between
Alaska and Russia, and avoid splitting Siberia into two different calendar days.
So the intersection of the International Dateline and the Arctic Circle is in the
Bering Sea, and not in any state or country.
