According to Rogozin, participation by Russian regions in various international organizations contributes to the maintenance of good relations in the Arctic region.

The Arctic is thought to contain enormous untapped resources of oil and gas. Five of the Arctic Circle countries, including the United States, Russia, Canada, Norway and Denmark have expressed a high interest in exploring the region.

Russia regards the development of its Arctic areas as a top priority.
