Abstract
In the 90-s of the XX-th century under active participation of Russia mechanisms of international cooperation were formed in the regions of Baltic Sea, Barents, Caspian, Black Sea and Arctic region. At the beginning they had different aims. With the time these platforms have gone through evolution with their agendas and functional principles becoming alike. At the time of turbulent transition of the international affairs such associations can play a positive, consolidating role and contribute to further strengthening the ties between participating countries on pragmatic basis of finding solutions for common regional problems.
