The article considers an example of a large-scale project for the extraction of natural liquefied gas - Yamal LNG, as a variant of mutually beneficial international cooperation between the Russian Federation, the People's Republic of China and the Republic of France. Analysts note that the development of the Arctic from the economic point of view is a difficult task. Without investment, this process can drag on for several decades. The best way is to use international cooperation. Indeed, it gives a number of preferences to the parties to the agreement. The key is to help export raw materials, create profitable transportation routes, ensure the repurchase of a part of natural resources. Of course for the Arctic it is essential and necessary. Nowadays, thanks to the implementation of the project a transport infrastructure was created successfully and also port and airport "Sabetta" were built, and the living conditions of people in the area were improved. The supply of raw materials to the European and Asian markets is already started. Such effective cooperation can begin to be realized in other Arctic territories of our country, for example, in the Republic of Karelia. There, for the time being, smaller smaller projects, but important projects in the sphere of energy, education, and tourism can find development. It is obvious that the international cooperation is a platform for interaction of states, including non-Arctic ones, that aspire to be in the Arctic region, take part in its development, establish business contacts with the Arctic countries by concluding important raw international agreements. Despite disagreements in economic and political issues, we understand that the Arctic needs to develop and maintain a coordinated world order on it.
