Summary: | The article presents an analysis of the current strategic documents of eight countries, permanent members of the Arctic Council (Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Canada, USA, Russia). Considering the trends in the development of the Arctic region, the analysis provides an opportunity to determine the main priorities of the Arctic states, to find common goals and features of their approaches in this process. There are three potentially consolidating components of the eight states: the main role of the Arctic Council in international cooperation, sustainable development of the region and ensuring security. In this regard, Arctic states need to develop common principles for the prosperity of the region, primarily security. |
