Abstract: The melting of the Arctic sea ice caused by global warming made great chances such as drilling rich natural resources, using Northern Sea Route and so on, and not only Arctic regional countries, but also other countries have been trying to get the good positions in the Arctic region. It is not easy for the counties to cooperate in the Arctic region and Arctic countries are strengthening the militarization to keep the influences. However, to develop the Arctic region, the search and rescue (SAR) should be well prepared by the international cooperation. After the Ukraine Crisis, the Arctic countries have felt Russian threat, and international cooperation including Russia became to be very difficult. However, there are regional relations differed from international relations, and the Barents cooperation seems to have great potential to think about the Arctic cooperation including SAR.
